I absolutely loved Pervasive WebGPU & WGSL: Graphics & Compute! It completely changed my perspective on WebGPU. At first I wasn't sure about Web Graphics, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Web Development is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in Programming. What I appreciated most was how the book made Computers & Technology feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

Pervasive WebGPU & WGSL: Graphics & Compute offers a compelling take on WebGPU, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Graphics Programming is excellent, I found the sections on Vulkan less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Computers & Technology that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Web Graphics more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Graphics Programming will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Web Development, if not the definitive work.

I think the author could have developed Metal more, but overall great.
I'd add that Vulkan is also worth considering in this discussion.
