It sits on top of pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-Metal, translating Objective-C APIs into Python bindings so you can call MPS functions directly from your code.\n\nThe package does not include its own documentation; instead, it relies on Apple's official MetalPerformanceShaders documentation and PyObjC's general translation guidelines. It's intended for developers who need low-level GPU acceleration on macOS and are comfortable consulting external framework documentation. Installation is restricted to macOS with Python 3.10 or later, and wheels are provided for multiple Python versions and architectures (Intel and Apple Silicon).","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are developing on macOS and need GPU-accelerated compute from Python. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and provides direct access to Apple's high-performance GPU framework. Install only if you are on macOS with Python 3.10+; it is not portable to other platforms."},"id":"pyobjc-framework-metalperformanceshaders","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyobjc-framework-metalperformanceshaders","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyobjc-framework-metalperformanceshaders.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pyobjc-framework-metalperformanceshaders/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-11","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pyobjc-framework-MetalPerformanceShaders","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Wrappers for the framework MetalPerformanceShaders on macOS"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":656881,"position":5484,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"12.2.2"}
