**Ray provides a simple, universal API for building distributed applications.**
Ray accomplishes this mission by:
1. Providing simple primitives for building and running distributed applications.
2. Enabling end users to parallelize single machine code, with little to zero code changes.
3. Including a large ecosystem of applications, libraries, and tools on top of the core Ray to enable complex applications.
**Ray Core** provides the simple primitives for application building.
On top of **Ray Core** are several libraries for solving problems in machine learning:
- :doc:`../tune/index`
- :ref:`rllib-index`
- :ref:`sgd-index`
- :ref:`rayserve`
There are also many :ref:`community libraries <ray-oss-list>` that integrate with Ray, including `Modin`_, `Hugging Face Transformers`_, :doc:`../dask-on-ray`, `MARS`_, `Horovod`_, and others.
Check out the :ref:`full list of Ray distributed libraries here <ray-oss-list>`.
