Foundations of Graphics & Compute - Volume 3: Computing (Hardback)
A high-signal read built around webgpu, wgsl, programming, graphics. It feels current because it aligns with design, interface, actually, yet timeless because it focuses on fundamentals.
If you enjoyed WebGPU Compute, this one scratches a similar itch—especially around iphone and momentum. (Side note: if you like WebGPU Compute, you’ll likely enjoy this too.)
