webgpu-cpp-hello-triangle

Simple hello triangle example using the current API of WebGPU using C++/WASM and Emscripten.

Due to the hand-wavy nature of this example, certain important concepts are not implemented (such as handling device lost, swapchain resize events, caching renderpasses). These might be implemented at a later date, but it's not strictly important for a simple hello triangle and would needlessly complicate the example which is aimed at showing the basic concept.

Following is an example output of the html canvas:

example output

build

To build run the following command from the root directory.

emcc main.cpp -o index.html -g -g4 -s USE_WEBGPU=1 --shell-file shell.html --bind -std=c++20

run

Once the output is present, run a local web server from the root folder. As example you can use Python3 for this:

python -m http.server 8000

Then simply visit http://localhost:8000/index.html in your browser of choice that supports WebGPU. (Chrome Canary was used for testing this repo)
