This is a work-in-progress project focused on WebGPU, I have been working with graphics for the best part of a decade now but my expertise lays in OpenGL which many people say it’s becoming obsolete now. I tried a few times to create new Vulcan o DX renderers and integrate that on my working 3D engine but ended up exhausted and confused each time by trying to consolidate the differences in their approaches. Although I managed to create toy Vulcan renderers, I came across WebGPU after working with WebXR for a while and I learned that I can still work on native C++ apps but deploy them in the browser with EMSCRIPTEN, which I think it’s very cool and nice to iterate, so this time I’m starting from a WebGPU rendering backend and growing that into a 3DViz playground.
As WebGPU is still an evolving API, there might be features that are not available in this playground if compared to OpenGL/Vulkan/DX/Metal, but I will try my best to provide a nice demo. Currently this project uses the emscripten 3.1.61 standard.
The project is expected to evolve over time, so features and visuals may change frequently.
