# `Nx.Mesh`
[🔗](https://github.com/elixir-nx/nx/blob/v0.12.0/nx/lib/nx/mesh.ex#L1)

A mesh is a named collection of devices arranged in a logical shape.

`name` is a string identifier for the mesh in the lowered program so that
sharding annotations can refer to a specific device topology without
embedding concrete device handles directly in the intermediate
representation.

`shape` is a tuple describing the logical layout of devices, where each
element is the size of a mesh dimension. For instance, a shape like
`{2, 4}` represents a 2x4 logical grid of devices.

# `t`

```elixir
@type t() :: %Nx.Mesh{name: String.t(), shape: tuple()}
```
