WebGPU (Graphics and Compute) API in 20 Minutes (Coffee Break Series)
A crisp, motivating guide through webgpu, graphics, compute, javascript. It stays engaging by mixing big-picture context with small, repeatable actions.
I’ve already recommended it twice. The javascript chapter alone is worth the price.

The book rewards re-reading. On pass two, the wgsl connections become more explicit and surprisingly rigorous.

Okay, wow. This is one of those books that makes you want to do things. The simulation framing is chef’s kiss. (Side note: if you like WebGPU and WGSL by Example: Fractals, Image Effects, Ray-Tracing, Procedural Geometry, 2D/3D, Particles, Simulations (Hardback), you’ll likely enjoy this too.)
