Hello!  
Is there a package or framework in Julia that is equivalent to the [Devito](https://www.devitoproject.org) Python package?

Maybe explain what Devito does that you want to be able to do in Julia. There may be similar packages or capabilities here, but people on this forum may not be familiar with Devito.

There is the wrapper package Devito from Chevron:

and JUDI utilizes Devito for an inversion application:

I don’t know anything about the wrapper package, but I know the latter is from the SLIM group at Georgia Tech that is doing a lot of very cool work. I’d check out both.

The following package:

> **[GitHub - omlins/ParallelStencil.jl: Package for writing high-level code for parallel...](https://github.com/omlins/ParallelStencil.jl)**
>
> Package for writing high-level code for parallel high-performance stencil computations that can be deployed on both GPUs and CPUs

(GPU capability does not require a license as I think devito does)
