In this video, we go over the code from Google's WebGPU Cross Platform App tutorial written by Francois Beaufort. We also go over some interesting tidbits I learned (about C++ and WebGPU) along the way.

Note: The code example worked on the first try, but I had a lot of questions. So I asked ChatGPT and added the comments to this example code. Wanted to make this video largely for my own future reference.

Here's my learning approach for anyone else going down the same path.

I cloned the repository, followed the steps to run it on my machine (using the commands specified in the repo, which worked on the first run). I asked ChatGPT a lot of questions about WebGPU and copied some info to the .cpp file with the comments. I also formatted the file to make it more readable (for me) using the a .clang-format file.

Basically, the code is the same, but it has comments that I find helpful.
