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 webgpu made everything click for me. I've been struggling with webgpu for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about wgsl - it reminded me so much of my own experience with simulation. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

Special Effects Programming with WebGPU is a comprehensive exploration of webgpu that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 5 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 3's discussion of compute is particularly strong, with clear examples and practical applications. The diagrams and illustrations throughout help clarify complex ideas, and the chapter summaries are excellent for review. My only minor critique is that more primary sources would strengthen the argument, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.
