The [RAPIDS](https://rapids.ai) cuGraph library is a collection of GPU accelerated graph algorithms that process data found in [GPU DataFrames](https://github.com/rapidsai/cudf). The vision of cuGraph is _to make graph analysis ubiquitous to the point that users just think in terms of analysis and not technologies or frameworks_. To realize that vision, cuGraph operates, at the Python layer, on GPU DataFrames, thereby allowing for seamless passing of data between ETL tasks in [cuDF](https://github.com/rapidsai/cudf) and machine learning tasks in [cuML](https://github.com/rapidsai/cuml). Data scientists familiar with Python will quickly pick up how cuGraph integrates with the Pandas-like API of cuDF. Likewise, users familiar with NetworkX will quickly recognize the NetworkX-like API provided in cuGraph, with the goal to allow existing code to be ported with minimal effort into RAPIDS.

As you move down the software stack, graph structure and processing becomes less obfuscated and understanding of graph theory is needed. We provide a Python layer, called pylibcugraph, for users wishing to integrate with cuGraph at the Python layer. For users familiar with C/C++/CUDA and graph structures, can access libcugraph and libcugraph_c for low level integration.
While the high-level cugraph python API provides an easy-to-use and familiar interface for data scientists that's consistent with other RAPIDS libraries in their workflow, some use cases require access to lower-level graph theory concepts. For these users, we provide an additional Python API called pylibcugraph, intended for applications that require a tighter integration with cuGraph at the Python layer with fewer dependencies. Users familiar with C/C++/CUDA and graph structures can access libcugraph and libcugraph_c for low level integration outside of python.
