I absolutely loved Special Effects Programming with WebGPU! It completely changed my perspective on webgpu. At first I wasn't sure about graphics, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Computers & Technology is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in Web Development & Design. What I appreciated most was how the book made shader feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

★★★★☆

Special Effects Programming with WebGPU offers a compelling take on webgpu, though not without flaws. While the treatment of ai is excellent, I found the sections on ai less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about JavaScript that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Books more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for shader will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Computers & Technology, if not the definitive work.
