I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with WebGPU Shader Language Development: Vertex, Fragment, Compute Shaders for Programmers, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains shader made everything click for me. I've been struggling with ray-tracing 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 compute. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

While WebGPU Shader Language Development: Vertex, Fragment, Compute Shaders for Programmers makes several valuable points about programming, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of graphics seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to programming. That said, the sections on programming are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in webgpu, this could be a truly outstanding work.

WebGPU Shader Language Development: Vertex, Fragment, Compute Shaders for Programmers is a comprehensive exploration of webgpu that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 6 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.
