I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Special Effects Programming with WebGPU, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains compute made everything click for me. I've been struggling with programming for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about shader - it reminded me so much of my own experience with programming. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

While Special Effects Programming with WebGPU makes several valuable points about shader, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of wgsl seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to webgpu. That said, the sections on simulation are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in ai, this could be a truly outstanding work.
