RunMat is a modern, open-source runtime for MATLAB-style scripts. It aims to be a fast and portable environment for array math, with full MATLAB syntax support and automatic CPU/GPU execution. It differs from Octave by focusing on performance, GPU acceleration, and a compact, modern runtime design → not just compatibility. It meets guidelines: • Open source, active, well-documented • Personally used and tested • Not a new/unproven project dump • Clear improvements over similar tools (speed, GPU support, modern JIT, portability) • Fully documented with installation, language coverage, and examples • MIT-style license • Not a full MATLAB clone, but a focused runtime
