Based on the [the Gluon API specification](https://github.com/gluon-api/gluon-api), the new Gluon library in Apache MXNet provides a clear, concise, and simple API for deep learning. It makes it easy to prototype, build, and train deep learning models without sacrificing training speed. Install the latest version of MXNet to get access to Gluon by either following these easy steps or using this simple command:

3. Dynamic Graphs: Gluon enables developers to define neural network models that are dynamic, meaning they can be built on the fly, with any structure, and using any of Python’s native control flow.

4. High Performance: Gluon provides all of the above benefits without impacting the training speed that the underlying engine provides.
