reasoning
**Exploring code structure**
I'm thinking about how to handle the host wrapper in cpp_sources. It seems that I can have a load_inline function incorporating both cpp_sources for declarations and cuda_sources for implementations. This could be a neat way to organize the code and separate out the components. I need to double-check if this approach aligns well with the overall architecture and coding standards I'm working with. Let’s see how this structure plays out in practice!
