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

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 simulation 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 webgpu - it reminded me so much of my own experience with webgpu. I've already recommended it to all my friends!
