# Kokkos: Core Libraries
|
|
|
|
Kokkos Core implements a programming model in C++ for writing performance portable
|
|
applications targeting all major HPC platforms. For that purpose it provides
|
|
abstractions for both parallel execution of code and data management.
|
|
Kokkos is designed to target complex node architectures with N-level memory
|
|
hierarchies and multiple types of execution resources. It currently can use
|
|
CUDA, HIP, SYCL, HPX, OpenMP and C++ threads as backend programming models with several other
|
|
backends in development.
|
|
|
|
**Kokkos Core is part of the Kokkos C++ Performance Portability Programming EcoSystem.**

# Learning about Kokkos
|
|
|
|
To start learning about Kokkos:
|
|
|
|
- [Kokkos Lectures](https://kokkos.github.io/kokkos-core-wiki/videolectures.html): they contain a mix of lecture videos and hands-on exercises covering all the important Kokkos Ecosystem capabilities.
|
|
|
|
- [Programming guide](https://kokkos.github.io/kokkos-core-wiki/programmingguide.html): contains in "narrative" form a technical description of the programming model, machine model, and the main building blocks like the Views and parallel dispatch.
|
|
|
|
- [API reference](https://kokkos.github.io/kokkos-core-wiki/): organized by category, i.e., [core](https://kokkos.github.io/kokkos-core-wiki/API/core-index.html), [algorithms](https://kokkos.github.io/kokkos-core-wiki/API/algorithms-index.html) and [containers](https://kokkos.github.io/kokkos-core-wiki/API/containers-index.html) or, if you prefer, in [alphabetical order](https://kokkos.github.io/kokkos-core-wiki/API/alphabetical.html).
|
|
|
|
- [Use cases and Examples](https://kokkos.github.io/kokkos-core-wiki/usecases.html): a series of examples ranging from how to use Kokkos with MPI to Fortran interoperability.
