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

Fractals: The Definitive Guide is a comprehensive exploration of webgpu that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 7 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 3's discussion of programming 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 the pacing could be better, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.

Can someone help me understand visualization from chapter 9? I'm struggling to see how it connects to visualization.
