This is an active GitHub mirror of the WebGPU native implementation in Rust, which now lives in Mozilla-central. Issues and pull requests are accepted, but we merge them in m-c manually and then sync to GitHub instead of landing directly here.

WebGPU

This is an experimental WebGPU implementation as a native static library. It's written in Rust and is based on gfx-hal and Rendy libraries. The corresponding WebIDL specification can be found at gpuweb project.

The implementation consists of the following parts:

1. wgpu-native - the native implementation of WebGPU as a C API library
2. wgpu-remote - remoting layer to work with WebGPU across the process boundary
3. ffi - the C headers generated by cbindgen for both of the libraries

Supported Platforms

Usage

This repository contains C-language examples that link to the native library targets and perform basic rendering and computation. Please refer to our Getting Started page at the wiki for more information.
