APIs like Direct3D 12, Metal, and Vulkan. To keep up with this evolution, a new breed of APIs were developed to more efficiently interact with modern GPU hardware. That's a long time ago! And you can imagine that GPU hardware has evolved significantly since that time. WebGL was based on the OpenGL family of APIs first developed in 1992.
By allowing web applications to take advantage of GPUs, WebGL enables amazing experiences on the web-from Google Earth, to interactive music videos, to 3D real-estate walkthroughs and more. But first, let’s provide some context for why WebGPU was developed. This article explores how WebGPU is an improvement over the current solution of WebGL, with a sneak peek at future developments.
The new WebGPU API unlocks massive performance gains in graphics and machine learning workloads.
