Overview
--------

This package provides Python bindings for the *Message Passing
Interface* (`MPI <https://www.mpi-forum.org/>`_) standard. It is
implemented on top of the MPI specification and exposes an API which
grounds on the standard MPI-2 C++ bindings.

Prerequisites
-------------

* `Python <https://www.python.org/>`_ 3.6 or above,
  or `PyPy <https://www.pypy.org/>`_ 7.2 or above.

* An MPI implementation like `MPICH <https://www.mpich.org/>`_ or
  `Open MPI <https://www.open-mpi.org/>`_ built with shared/dynamic
  libraries.

Documentation
-------------

* Read the Docs: https://mpi4py.readthedocs.io/
* GitHub Pages:  https://mpi4py.github.io/
