It exposes C APIs directly and can also be accessed through the cuQuantum Python wrapper. The library is designed to offload quantum state vector computations to NVIDIA GPUs, enabling high-performance quantum circuit simulation on CUDA 12 hardware.\n\nThe package ships as platform-specific wheels for Linux (x86_64 and aarch64) and has no Python runtime dependencies, meaning it acts as a thin wrapper around the underlying CUDA libraries. Installation requires an NVIDIA CUDA 12 environment; the library is actively maintained and currently in use by quantum computing researchers and practitioners building simulators.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you have NVIDIA CUDA 12 hardware and are building quantum simulators. The active maintenance, zero security vulnerabilities, and GPU acceleration justify installation for quantum computing workloads. Verify NVIDIA's proprietary license terms for your use case first, and note that practical use likely requires the cuQuantum Python wrapper."},"id":"custatevec-cu12","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/custatevec-cu12","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/custatevec-cu12.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/custatevec-cu12/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-06-29","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"custatevec-cu12","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"cuStateVec - a component of NVIDIA cuQuantum SDK"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":75645,"position":14693,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.14.0"}
