Examples

Basic GPUQueue access:

async function init() {
 if (!navigator.gpu) {
 throw Error("WebGPU not supported.");
 }
 const adapter = await navigator.gpu.requestAdapter();
 if (!adapter) {
 throw Error("Couldn't request WebGPU adapter.");
 }
 // Create a GPUDevice
 const device = await adapter.requestDevice();
 // ...
 // Common queue use — end current frame by passing array of
 // command buffers to queue for execution
 device.queue.submit([commandEncoder.finish()]);
 // ...
}
