PyTorch Internals 09 - The Basic Path of a C++ Extension
A C++ extension is the first practical bridge between user-defined logic and the PyTorch runtime
Why start here
For many practical internals tasks, the first real step is a C++ extension. It forces you to think about:
- operator schema
- tensor validation
- runtime boundaries
- Python-to-ATen integration
The next post takes that path further into CUDA extensions and custom kernels.
