The author mentions Rust's portable SIMD library [0]. The only issue with portable SIMD is it's only available on nightly. I used it in my FFT crate, but we had to switch to the fearless_simd crate in order to get a portable SIMD solution that works on stable [1].

Pretty common for Rust to cook things in nightly for a very long time; I wouldn't consider it a bad thing, tbh.
