High-Performance Engine Piece
A C++ core library does the heavy lifting—recommendation engine, pathfinding, or image processing—while Python or Node.js handles APIs, UIs, and glue. You get native speed where it matters and a familiar stack everywhere else.
The project includes the C++ core, build setup, and bindings (e.g. pybind11 or N-API) so you can call into it from your app without rewriting everything in C++.
Possible cores
- Recommendation engine — collaborative filtering, similarity, ranking in C++; call from Python/Node for APIs or scripts.
- Pathfinding — A*, Dijkstra, or grid-based algorithms in C++; bindings for games, bots, or logistics backends.
- Image processing — resize, filters, format conversion in C++; use from a web or desktop app via bindings.
Why C++ + bindings
Critical loops run in compiled, cache-friendly C++. You keep your product in Python or Node for fast iteration and ecosystem tooling, and only move the hot path into a small native library. The repo includes build scripts and binding examples so you can plug the core into your stack with minimal boilerplate.
