WebGPU Gone Wrong (Paperback)

About This Book

Is WebGPU a dream? Or is it a car crash? When WebGPU was first announced, it promised to revolutionize graphics on the web. Developers and tech enthusiasts alike were eager for a future where GPU-accelerated web applications would be faster, more efficient, and more powerful than ever before. But reality hasn't quite lived up to the hype. Beneath the sleek surface, WebGPU is riddled with issues that can't be ignored. Security vulnerabilities leave it exposed in ways that could put users at risk. The shader language - meant to be the heart of this new technology - is supported almost nowhere else, creating a steep barrier to entry for developers. Worse yet, WebGPU struggles with robustness and compatibility, meaning what works in one environment may fall apart in another. In writing WebGPU Gone Wrong, my goal is not to dismiss the potential of WebGPU, but to bring to light the flaws that have been glossed over. This book is a casual dive into the dark side of WebGPU - examining its critical failings in security, robustness, cross-platform support, and overall usability. This isn't a story of outright failure. It's a story of broken promises and missed opportunities, but also of hope - because understanding these problems is the first step toward fixing them. For developers, tech leaders, and anyone invested in the future of web technologies, this book offers a frank and necessary exploration of WebGPU's flaws and the steps needed to make it the tool it could be.

Whether you're a beginner looking to learn the basics or an experienced professional seeking advanced knowledge, this book has something valuable to offer.

Seriously, this book made my day. Especially since it focused on shader. Delightful. It somehow made me laugh and think at the same time. I loved how it mixed serious insight with friendly storytelling. Each chapter felt like chatting with a really smart friend. The tone was super inviting without dumbing things down. Definitely recommending this to a few people already.

Dove into this one on webgpu and didn’t regret it. Cool. The writer doesn’t overdo it—just solid points and good flow. Honestly, I’d bring this on a weekend trip. It’s one of those reads you can chill with. I’d grab another book by this author.
