163: Remove Rust wrapper and examples r=kvark a=kvark Fixes #160 Closes #60 Everything specific to Rust API is about to be moved to https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu-rs It would let this project to be a proper mirror of mozilla-central piece, and it would encourage other authors to experiment with different approaches to Rust wrappers (i.e. borrowing versus non-borrowing). cc @jdashg Co-authored-by: Dzmitry Malyshau <kvarkus@gmail.com>
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:
wgpu-native- the native implementation of WebGPU as a C API librarywgpu-remote- remoting layer to work with WebGPU across the process boundaryffi- the C headers generated by cbindgen for both of the libraries
Supported platforms:
- Vulkan on Windows and Linux
- D3D12 and D3D11 on Windows
- Metal on macOS and iOS
Usage
This repository contains C-language examples that link to the native library targets and perform basic rendering and computation. You can test them with make.
The idiomatic Rust wrapper lives in https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu-rs and provides a number of more complex examples to get a feel of the API.
