This is a SIMD library (vector in the sense of doing many things at once), what you linked are maths library (vector as in mathematical concept). There’s clearly a bunch of overlap, both are used to do calculations and afaik the libraries you link also use SIMD when they can, so the practical difference is that this library is lower level and more generally applicable (but presumably more complex or difficult to work with).
