★★★★☆

I absolutely loved Special Effects Programming with WebGPU! It completely changed my perspective on webgpu. At first I wasn't sure about Books, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains webgpu 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 shader. What I appreciated most was how the book made graphics 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 programming is excellent, I found the sections on wgsl less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about programming that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing ai more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for graphics will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on programming, if not the definitive work.
