Okay, wow. This is one of those books that makes you want to do things. The Graphics Programming framing is chef’s kiss.
Reviewer avatar
The book rewards re-reading. On pass two, the High-Performance connections become more explicit and surprisingly rigorous.
Reviewer avatar
I didn’t expect Pervasive WebGPU & WGSL: Graphics & Compute to be this approachable. The way it frames High-Performance made me instantly calmer about getting started.
