npm install @sylphx/webgpubash
bun add @sylphx/webgpubash
pnpm add @sylphx/webgpuSimple Example
javascript
const { Gpu } = require('@sylphx/webgpu')
async function main() {
// Create GPU instance
const gpu = Gpu.create()
// Request adapter
const adapter = await gpu.requestAdapter()
console.log('GPU:', adapter.getInfo().name)
// Request device
const device = await adapter.requestDevice()
// Ready to use WebGPU!
console.log('WebGPU ready!')
}
