Maybe there is no equivalent, but WebGL is not a mature technology. Webgl stuff still breaks or has performance bugs whenever some part of the OS/Browser/GPU Driver/GPU Hardware sandwich changes. You can run the conformance tests yourself.
- adamredwoods 8y agoI don't see how a technology can get to a mature status if a major hardware company decides to not support it. The real question is WHY don't they support it? Is there a webMetal?
- ksk 8y agoAll we know is that Apple was bankrolling a portion of OpenGL development on OSX and now they feel otherwise. OpenGL ARB is a committee and Apple has only one vote. Maybe they were not satisfied with the direction the spec was going. Its certainly not an unfounded belief. >I don't see how a technology can get to a mature status if a major hardware company decides to not support it. Alternate reading - They gave it their time and money, and it didn't work out.
