I read one section during a coffee break and ended up rewriting my plan for the week. The webgpu part hit that hard.
Reviewer avatar
Fast to start. Clear chapters. Great on wgsl.
Reviewer avatar
A friend asked what I learned and I could actually explain it—because the ai chapter is built for recall.
Reviewer avatar
Practical, not preachy. Loved the simulation examples.
