Description: # aesara-theano-fallback
        
        Striving towards backwards compatibility as
        [Theano](https://github.com/theano/theano) is replaced by
        [Aesara](https://github.com/pymc-devs/aesara) by the [PyMC3
        project](https://docs.pymc.io). The idea is to provide a nearly drop in
        replacement for importing `aesara` that will fall back onto `theano` when
        `aesara` is not installed. This was specifically designed to support the
        [exoplanet](https://github.com/exoplanet-dev/exoplanet) and
        [starry](https://github.com/rodluger/starry) projects so it might not support
        all of the features that you need. If you find something that isn't supported,
        please submit a pull request!
        
        ## Installaion
        
        This library can be installed using pip:
        
        ```bash
        python -m pip install aesara-theano-fallback
        ```
        
        ## Usage
        
        The syntax is designed to mostly follow `aesara`, so things like the following will often work:
        
        ```python
        import aesara_theano_fallback.tensor as aet
        ```
        
        For top-level access, use
        
        ```python
        from aesara_theano_fallback import aesara
        ```
        
        One place where the syntax has changed significantly between Theano and Aesara
        is the `theano.gof` module was re-named to `aesara.graph` and the contents were
        moved around a little bit. For exoplanet and starry, we define a few custom `Op`s
        and you can use this library to do that as follows:
        
        ```python
        from aesara_theano_fallback.graph import basic, op
        
        class MyPythonOp(op.Op):
            def make_node(self, *args):
                # ...
                return basic.Apply(self, in_args, out_args)
        
        class MyCOp(op.ExternalCOp):
            func_file = "./cpp_impl.cc"
            func_name = "APPLY_SPECIFIC(my_op_name)"
            # ...
        ```
