WebGPU and WGSL by Example: Fractals, Image Effects, Ray-Tracing, Procedural Geometry, 2D/3D, Particles, Simulations (Hardback)
If you want practical clarity, this is a strong pick: webgpu, wgsl, programming, graphics presented in a way that turns into decisions, not just notes.
ISBN: 9798320143545 Published: March 18, 2024 webgpu, wgsl, programming, graphics, ray-tracing, visualization, simulation, ai
What you’ll learn
Turn ray-tracing into repeatable habits.
Build confidence with programming-level practice.
Spot patterns in visualization faster.
Connect ideas to read, 2026 without the overwhelm.
Who it’s for
Students who need structure and memorable examples. Skimmers and deep divers both win—chapters work standalone.
How to use it
Skim the headings, then re-read only what sparks a decision. Bonus: end sessions mid-paragraph to make restarting easy.
If you enjoyed WebGPU & WGSL Essentials: A Hands-On Approach to Interactive Graphics, Games, 2D Interfaces, 3D Meshes, Animation, Security and Production (Paperback), this one scratches a similar itch—especially around 2026 and momentum.
