Like DirectX, Metal, and Vulkan, WebGPU allows rendering directly on a graphics processing unit (GPU), with access to more advanced features (unlike WebGL).

WebGPU is a new web standard and instruction set for hardware-accelerated graphics and computing developed by engineers from Google, Apple, Mozilla, Microsoft, and other companies. The new API is now available by default in Chrome 113, which is currently in the Beta Channel and will soon arrive to all users in the Stable Channel. The Google Chrome team has announced the release of the WebGPU API for high-performance 3D graphics and data-parallel computation on the web.
