Special Effects Programming with WebGPU offers a compelling take on webgpu, though not without flaws. While the treatment of simulation is excellent, I found the sections on graphics less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about webgpu that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing webgpu more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Programming will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Computers & Technology, if not the definitive work.

I absolutely loved Special Effects Programming with WebGPU! It completely changed my perspective on webgpu. At first I wasn't sure about webgpu, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains compute is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in JavaScript. What I appreciated most was how the book made shader feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
