A friend asked what I learned and I could actually explain it—because the shader chapter is built for recall. (Side note: if you like WebGPU & WGSL Essentials: A Hands-On Approach to Interactive Graphics, Games, 2D Interfaces, 3D Meshes, Animation, Security and Production (Paperback), you’ll likely enjoy this too.)
