WebGPU and WGSL by Example: Fractals, Image Effects, Ray-Tracing, Procedural Geometry, 2D/3D, Particles, Simulations (Paperback)

About This Book

WebGPU and WGSL by Example: Fractals, Image Effects, Ray-Tracing, Procedural Geometry, 2D/3D, Particles, Simulations aims to be your guide to harnessing the power of modern web graphics technologies for creating stunning visual effects, simulations, and interactive experiences on the web. The web is evolving at a rapid pace, and with the advent of WebGPU and WGSL (WebGPU Shading Language), web developers now have access to a low-level, high-performance graphics API and a modern shading language tailored specifically for the web platform. These technologies open up a world of possibilities for pushing the boundaries of what's achievable in web-based graphics and simulations. In this book, we'll dive deep into practical examples that demonstrate the capabilities of WebGPU and WGSL. From generating intricate fractal patterns to simulating dynamic particle systems, from crafting lifelike image effects to implementing real-time ray tracing, we'll explore a wide range of topics, each accompanied by hands-on examples and detailed explanations. Whether you're a seasoned web developer looking to expand your skills into the realm of advanced graphics programming or a newcomer eager to explore the possibilities of web-based visual computing, this book has something for you. Each chapter is designed to be accessible yet informative, guiding you through the process of implementing complex graphics techniques in a clear and concise manner. At the end of this book, you'll have a solid understanding of how to leverage WebGPU and WGSL to create stunning visual experiences that run seamlessly in modern web browsers. Whether you're building interactive data visualizations, immersive games, or cutting-edge web applications, the knowledge and skills gained from this book will empower you to push the boundaries of web graphics and unlock new creative possibilities.

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

I had such a great time reading this one! It's all about graphics, and - Delightful. It somehow made me laugh and think at the same time. Each chapter felt like chatting with a really smart friend. The tone was super inviting without dumbing things down. I loved how it mixed serious insight with friendly storytelling. Give it a try—you might just love it too!
