+This project compiles all the compute shaders which implement the model.
+
+Many shaders come in 2 versions, something.hlsl and something64.hlsl
+
+The version with the `64` suffix is used on AMD GPUs, the version without suffix is used on nVidia and Intel GPUs.
+
+Not all of these shaders are actually used for anything.
+Some of them are implementing binary compatibility for the reference CPU version, and not used unless messing with the `constexpr` flags in MlContext C++ class.
+Such shaders often require FP64 support, which is an optional feature in D3D11.
+CompressShaders tool detects such shaders by looking at the SFI0 chunk in the binary, and outputs a bitmap of the FP64 shaders.
+This way, missing FP64 hardware support shouldn’t break the library.
