Installation
============

Although ``xtensor-blas`` is a header-only library, we provide standardized means to install it, with package managers or with cmake.

Besides the xtensor headers, all these methods place the `cmake` project configuration file in the right location so that third-party projects can use cmake's find_package to locate xtensor headers.

.. seealso:: Read the :ref:`Performance and Linking <perf-and-link>` chapter on how to link against BLAS and improve performance
