# LynxKite 2024

This is an experimental rewrite of [LynxKite](https://github.com/lynxkite/lynxkite). It is not compatible with the
original LynxKite. The primary goals of this rewrite are:

- Target GPU clusters instead of Hadoop clusters. We use Python instead of Scala, RAPIDS instead of Apache Spark.
- More extensible backend. Make it easy to add new LynxKite boxes. Make it easy to use our frontend for other purposes,
  configuring and executing other pipelines.

## Structure

- `lynxkite-core`: Core types and utilities. Depend on this lightweight package if you are writing LynxKite plugins.
- `lynxkite-app`: The LynxKite web application. Install some plugins then run this to use LynxKite.
- `lynxkite-graph-analytics`: Graph analytics plugin. The classical LynxKite experience!
- `lynxkite-pillow`: A simple example plugin.
- `lynxkite-lynxscribe`: A plugin for building and running LynxScribe applications.
