Is WebGPU part of Servo? I know the guys at Mozilla were developing WebGPU API in Rust. Looking to see where it's going (I assume Firefox has to use it too. Chrome already has experimental support)
Any idea?
- lastontheboat 6y agoWe had a summer of code student implementing support in Servo: https://blog.servo.org/2020/08/30/gsoc-webgpu/ https://blog.servo.org/2020/08/30/gsoc-webgpu/
- sweetlucipher 6y agoExcellent news. Thank you!!
- mrec 6y agoNo, separate project, although both Servo and Gecko (the C++ Firefox codebase) are aiming to use it. This diagram [1] kvark posted the other day might help. (I think dotted-outline boxes indicate external components, but couldn't swear to it.) [1] https://gfx-rs.github.io/2020/11/16/big-picture.html https://gfx-rs.github.io/2020/11/16/big-picture.html
- Manishearth 6y agoThe wgpu crate is being developed by Firefox engineers for Firefox. As lastontheboat said we had a student integrate it into Servo this year.
