Implementation Status

This page shows the current implementation status of WebGPU in browsers.

🌐🌐 For general WebGPU information and resources, visit webgpu.org. 🌐🌐

👷👷 Developers are highly recommended to test regularly against pre-release versions in order to catch issues before they reach users! 👷👷
Chrome Canary - Edge Canary - Firefox Nightly - Safari Technology Preview

Reporting Implementation Issues (bugs, implementation requests, etc.)

1. Test in the latest pre-release browser version to see if the issue is still present.
2. Search to see if you can find an issue already filed, then file a bug.
   • Chromium/Dawn: Search bugs, File a new bug
   • Firefox: Search/file Firefox bugs, Search wgpu bugs
   • Safari: Search WebKit bugs, File a new bug

Chromium (Chrome, Edge, etc.)

• ¹ How to enable on Linux:

  Requires launching the browser from the command line with:
  --enable-unsafe-webgpu --ozone-platform=x11 --use-angle=vulkan --enable-features=Vulkan,VulkanFromANGLE
  (Make sure your graphics drivers are up-to-date! If it still doesn't work, comment on #5022.)

• ² How to enable on Windows ARM64:

  Requires chrome://flags/#enable-unsafe-webgpu or the --enable-unsafe-webgpu command line flag.

Implementation based on the Dawn C++ project.
