# Triton

This is the development repository of Triton, a language and compiler for writing highly efficient custom Deep-Learning primitives. The aim of Triton is to provide an open-source environment to write fast code at higher productivity than CUDA, but also with higher flexibility than other existing DSLs.

The foundations of this project are described in the following MAPL2019 publication: [Triton: An Intermediate Language and Compiler for Tiled Neural Network Computations](http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~htk/publication/2019-mapl-tillet-kung-cox.pdf). Please consider citing this work if you use Triton!

The [official documentation](https://triton-lang.org) contains installation instructions and tutorials.

# Quick Installation

You can install the latest stable release of Triton from pip:

```bash
pip install triton
```
Binary wheels are available for CPython 3.6-3.11 and PyPy 3.7-3.9.

And the latest nightly release:

```bash
pip install -U --pre triton
```

# Install from source

```
git clone https://github.com/openai/triton.git;
cd triton/python;
pip install cmake; # build-time dependency
pip install -e .
```

# Changelog

Version 2.0 is out! New features include:
- Many, many bug fixes
- Performance improvements
- Backend rewritten to use MLIR
- Support for kernels that contain back-to-back matmuls (e.g., flash attention)
