WebGPU #185

Description

@LeviPesin

Description

WebGPU is a new low-level GPU API to access platforms such as Vulkan, similarly as how WebGL allows to access OpenGL.

Rationale

WebGPU is extremely useful for 3D developers and 3D libraries developers, because it is much faster than WebGL, because it allows low-level GPU access.
It is not enabled in any browser currently by default, but is behind a flag in all major five browsers.

Investigation Roadmap

Draft specification: https://gpuweb.github.io/gpuweb/

No tests in WPT yet: https://wpt.fyi/results/?label=master&label=experimental&aligned&view=subtest&q=webgpu
