Introduction to Programming GPUs using Custom Operations with MAX - Part 1: Simple Custom Op

Learn GPU Programming with Mojo + MAX | Custom Ops Tutorial (Part 1)
Ready to get started with GPU programming using Mojo and the MAX Graph API? In this beginner-friendly tutorial, we’ll show you how to build a simple custom operation that runs on CPUs and GPUs — no low-level hardware knowledge required.

👉 What you’ll learn in this video:
• How to install Magic, Modular’s package manager
• How to write a Mojo op that adds +1 to every tensor element
• How to run custom ops on NVIDIA GPUs
• How MAX Graph handles parallel workloads across devices
• How to validate your outputs using NumPy

This is Part 1 of a 3-part series — perfect for anyone looking to get hands-on with Mojo, MAX, and high-performance AI programming.

⚙️ Run it yourself:
Install Magic → download the project → magic run add_one
No CUDA setup needed — just modern NVIDIA drivers (v555+).
