bindbc-wgpu 0.22.0

bindbc-wgpu

Dynamic binding to gfx-rs/wgpu-native based on BindBC library loader. Supports Windows, Linux and macOS.

WebGPU specification is currently a working draft and not a standard yet. This binding may be not up to date with latest API revisions.

Usage:

"dependencies": {
    "bindbc-wgpu": "0.22.0"
}

Since 0.8.0, major and minor version numbers of the bindbc-wgpu package are in sync with wgpu-native versioning. Patch number can be different.

Since 0.17.0, this binding doesn't provide dynamic libraries (libwgpu_native), you should install them by yourself.

This repository also includes a simple triangle drawing example. More advanced demo can be found here.

What is WebGPU?

It is a new low-level graphics and compute API for the Web that works on top of Vulkan, DirectX 12, or Metal. It exposes the generic computational facilities available in today's GPUs in a cross-platform way.

wgpu is a native WebGPU implementation written in Rust that can be compiled to a shared library to use with any language. Its API is based on the W3C spec. It serves as the core of the WebGPU integration in Firefox, Servo, and Deno.
