Quick start
Installation
You can install Brian2CUDA via pip:
python -m pip install brian2cuda
This will install a compatible version of Brian2 as dependency. For installation requirements and GPU configuration, check out the Brian2CUDA documentation.
Usage
Use your Brian2 code (see Brian2 documentation) and modify the imports to:
# Standard Brian2 import
from brian2 import *
# Enable GPU usage via Brian2CUDA
import brian2cuda
set_device("cuda_standalone")
See Brian2's standalone code generation for more options for the set_device call.
