UWAL

The goal of UWAL is to remove as much boilerplate as possible when working with the WebGPU APIs, while still providing a flexible interface with reasonable defaults for all configuration options.

Introduction

• UWAL is very minimal, under development and in early alpha stage, so expect breaking changes in the future.
• There are no plans to implement any WebGL fallback, so keep an eye on browsers that support WebGPU APIs.
• It is aimed at developers who like minimal layers of abstraction and are interested in writing their own shaders.
• To get started with UWAL, feel free to check out the Wiki page for some simple examples using version 0.1.0.

Installation

npm i uwal
# or
yarn add uwal
# or
