Requirements

The minimum requirements of BBM that supports the built-in native backbone (without packets or autodiff) and without python bindings are:

• cmake (version >= 3.21)

• C++20 compatible compiler (gcc >= 11 or clang >= 14)

Additional optional requirements are:

• pybind11: for including python bindings

• enoki: for CPU based packet and autodiff (experimental) support;

• DrJIT: for CPU and LLVM based autodiff (experimental) support;

• doxygen: for API document generation

• sphinx and sphinx_rtd_theme: for generating this documentation

The easiest way to include external libraries such as enoki or DrJIT is to clone them from their respective repositories into the ext subdirectory in the bbm main directory.
