# NI Pulse Streamer
An abstraction layer providing a Python API for scripted pulse sequence generation with [National Instruments](http://www.ni.com) hardware.
**Main features:**
* Simple Python API allows scripting very complex sequences.
* Streaming approach enables practically unlimited sequence duration. The pulse sequence is efficiently stored as a list of instructions, while the waveform samples are computed on the fly, requiring only a small amount of memory at any given time.
* The streaming back-end is implemented in Rust – fast, lightweight, and robust.
* Versatile package format – the streamer can be run as a standalone tool with a minimal Python script, or be integrated into any other control software.
See [project documentation](https://nistreamer.readthedocs.io) for more details. In particular, the `Internals/Project Structure` section explains source code layout.
