I read one section during a coffee break and ended up rewriting my plan for the week. The simulation part hit that hard. (Side note: if you like Special Effects Programming with WebGPU (Hardback), you’ll likely enjoy this too.)
Reviewer avatar
Fast to start. Clear chapters. Great on webgpu.

Not perfect, but very useful. The february angle kept it grounded in current problems.

The book rewards re-reading. On pass two, the programming connections become more explicit and surprisingly rigorous.
Reviewer avatar
Practical, not preachy. Loved the wgsl examples.

From a structural standpoint, the text creates a coherent ladder: definitions → examples → constraints → application. That’s why the graphics arguments land.
