Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 2: Rendering 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 3'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 some examples felt dated, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.

While Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 2: Rendering makes several valuable points about wgsl, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of simulation seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to graphics. That said, the sections on compute are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in compute, this could be a truly outstanding work.

Has anyone else noticed how Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 2: Rendering relates to simulation? I was reading about wgsl and it made me think of chapter 8.
