WebGPU (Graphics and Compute) API in 20 Minutes (Coffee Break Series)
By Kenwright
WebGPU is a powerful JavaScript API for performing operations, such as rendering and compute computations, on a Graphics Processing Unit. This incredible API is a new standard being integrated into the latest browsers - allowing GPU accelerated graphics, image processing effects, physical simulations and more. WebGPU is so powerful and light on its feet that it’s easy to forget it’s a web-based API. WebGPU is a must-learn for its flexibility, power and beauty. It works in a bold and poignant way, providing you the kind of results that will leave you amazed. As you learn the WebGPU API, you’ll find it difficult to believe the amazing things the WebGPU API can do. You’ll adjust your expectations - from interested to impressed and eventually awe of what is possible using the WebGPU API. The WebGPU in 20 Minutes is an ambitious guide that helps you get started on the road to WebGPU development. Simplified examples with no-nonsense explanations, this book guides you through a series of chapters, progressively introducing you to the concepts and applications of WebGPU (including tips, code listings and visual illustrations). This introductory text is a practical resource to finding your way to getting started with WebGPU in a world where we never have enough time. The book explains simple yet important concepts and practicals that you can incorporate into your own programs.
