License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Popularity: top 1,000 on PyPI ## Install pip install blis uv add blis poetry add blis ## Description # Cython BLIS: Fast BLAS-like operations from Python and Cython, without the tears This repository provides the [Blis linear algebra](https://github.com/flame/blis) routines as a self-contained Python C-extension. Currently, we only supports single-threaded execution, as this is actually best for our workloads (ML inference).

Verdict: Blis is a well-maintained, actively developed linear algebra library with no known vulnerabilities and permissive licensing. Medium install friction is offset by broad wheel coverage for common platforms; non-standard architectures require source compilation with manual setup. Suitable for production ML inference workloads requiring fast single-threaded BLAS operations. [View on SkillFed](https://skillfed.io/packages/blis) · [View on PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/blis/)
