Vx
Vx is a systems programming language that represents CPU, GPU, NPU, and accelerator memory placement in the type system. It uses compile-time checks and explicit transfers to make heterogeneous-memory access safer and more predictable for systems developers.
Overview
8 featuresVx sits in PulseGate's Frameworks & SDKs category. It focuses on preventing memory-placement and accelerator-boundary errors when programming heterogeneous systems. It is built as an open-source project for systems programmers and developers building CPU, GPU, NPU, and accelerator software. Vx is open source under the Open Source license. It ships for the web, the command line, macOS, and Linux, and it can be self-hosted.
It is developed by Vx contributors, and it first shipped in 2026. The project is developed in the open on GitHub with 14 stars and 1k commits in the last 90 days. Key capabilities include type-safe pointers, memory placement types, and explicit data transfers.
