Firefox and Safari don't support it yet. And how would you even deploy it to Steam (edit: or rather, make a desktop or mobile game with it)? Can you wrap it in a webview?
I'm confused now. I thought by definition it's a browser API that allows them to make Vulkan/OpenGL/DirectX calls, like an abstraction layer. Am I wrong?
Edit: wgpu is a reimplementation of the WebGPU api for use with desktop apps outside of browsers. See sibling thread by another poster for an explanation: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40598416
wgpu isn’t a reimplementation of WebGPU, it’s Firefox’s WebGPU implementation. It also conveniently runs outside of a browser and is accessible with a Rust or C API. You can also do the same thing with Dawn, which is Chrome’s implementation of WebGPU.
