Highly experimental, blazingly fast, lean & mean WebGPU implementation in Zig.

Experimental

This is an experimental project according to our stability guarantees:

When a project has an experimental warning, it means all bets are off. You should carefully read the warning to understand why the project is experimental, and assume the worst.

Tracking issue: https://github.com/hexops/mach/issues/966

Goals

• Written in Zig, be the leanest and meanest WebGPU implementation in the books (ability to turn off safety checks, bounds checks in shaders, etc.)
• Custom WGSL shader parser, AST, compiler, etc.
  • Modern backends:
    • Direct3D (Windows)
    • Vulkan (Linux, Android)
    • Metal (macOS, iOS)
  • (long-term) Custom Zig-like shader syntax
  • (long-term) Feature extensions (bindless, ray tracing, etc.)

Non-goals

• Patching or working around bad or insecure graphics drivers (browsers do this.)
• Ultra-wide hardware support; we won’t maintain OpenGL/GLES or software rendering backends, nor compatibility mode)
• BYOSL (bring-your-own-shading-language)
