While WebGPU (Graphics and Compute) API in 20 Minutes: (Coffee Break Series) makes several valuable points about wgsl, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of webgpu seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to compute. That said, the sections on webgpu are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in wgsl, this could be a truly outstanding work.

WebGPU (Graphics and Compute) API in 20 Minutes: (Coffee Break Series) is a comprehensive exploration of webgpu that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 4 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 1's discussion of wgsl 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.

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with WebGPU (Graphics and Compute) API in 20 Minutes: (Coffee Break Series), but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains simulation made everything click for me. I've been struggling with simulation for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about compute - it reminded me so much of my own experience with wgsl. I've already recommended it to all my friends!
