When it fits — and when it doesn’t

Known weaknesses

Each one links to the public issue, changelog or docs page it came from, where we have one.

1. 01

   Limited documentation for advanced use cases

   Core features lack comprehensive guides, relying on community forums and GitHub issues

2. 02

   Performance bottlenecks in large-scale deployments

   Not optimized for distributed training across multiple GPUs or clusters out-of-the-box

What it does well

• Modular design for easy experimentation with RL algorithms and environments.

• Built on PyTorch, leveraging its computational graph capabilities.

• Supports a wide range of reinforcement learning algorithms out-of-the-box.
