Kimi K3 Uses Three.js WebGPU for an AI-Built 3D Game Demo Moonshot’s Kimi K3 launch includes a notable WebGPU case study: an AI-built procedural 3D exploration game using Three.js WebGPU and GPU compute.
WebGPU Cluster Turns Browsers Into AI Inference Nodes Alexsandro Souza’s WebGPU Cluster turns browser tabs into shared AI inference nodes, with WebGPU hosts running RF-DETR or SmolVLM behind a simple HTTP API.
jax-js Brings JAX-Style ML Kernels To The Browser Eric Zhang’s jax-js is a pure JavaScript ML framework that compiles NumPy/JAX-style array code into WebAssembly and WebGPU kernels for client-side experiments.
Shining Turns WebGPU Into A Small 3D Storybook Chanwoo Hwang’s Shining is a short 3D interactive storybook built with Three.js WebGPU, using pages, light, and spatial scenes as the interface.
ASTRODITHER Turns Audio Into WebGPU Signal Noise Robert Borghesi’s ASTRODITHER is an audio-reactive Three.js WebGPU experiment using TSL, fluid simulation, bloom, dithering, and time-warped signal noise.
Tubes Cursor Turns the Pointer Into a WebGL Trail Kevin Levron’s Tubes Cursor is a compact Three.js interaction experiment that turns mouse movement into glowing tubular trails and can run through WebGL or WebGPU.
Chrome 149-150 Brings Immediates to WebGPU Chrome 149-150 adds WebGPU immediates, tightens transient attachment validation, and continues Dawn cleanup work. Small changes, but useful ones for developers pushing many tiny per-draw updates.
Evian's Bicentennial WebGPU World, Where Rain Runs Downhill Evian's 200th turned into an alpine scene that hands everything to the GPU: rain that lands on peaks and streaks down the slopes, one wind texture every object obeys, lightning generated fresh on each strike, and 20,000 particles colliding against an SDF instead of meshes.
A Portfolio You Walk Through: Hot Dogtor's WebGPU Building Paulo Pinho built his portfolio as a 3D building you wander room by room, scored by his own music. Runs on three.js WebGPU, falls back to WebGL, and ships a Basic version for everyone else. One site, three fidelity tiers, no pretending everyone's on a 4090.
Real-Time Global Illumination in the Browser With SATORI Engine A WebGPU renderer where light actually bounces. Color bleeds across walls, reflections fade off the frame, and the sun slides overhead while exposure holds steady. Built on TSL nodes with a single MRT pass feeding screen-space GI and reflections. Open the GUI and break something.
A 9k Forest: Node-Based 3D Assets in WebGPU Sedon wires a node graph into a real-time WebGPU renderer to grow a whole forest from about 9k of data. Rayleigh skies, rippling water, runtime LOD terrain, and a saved scene that fits in a URL. The twist: nearly every shader and pipeline was vibe coded, no engine involved.
GPU-Side Physics: A Three.js WebGPU Compute Demo Thousands of instanced bodies tumble and collide, with the entire physics step running on the GPU through WebGPU compute and Three.js TSL. No CPU round trip, no framerate flinch. A clean little workbench from Kevin Levron, built to inspect, tweak, and learn from.
Shader Lab: Stack, Animate, and Export GPU Shaders in the Browser A layered shader compositor that runs on WebGPU. Stack gradients, text, and TSL passes, then bend them through a CRT layer that models phosphor smear and channel convergence. Write shaders as node graphs, keyframe the knobs, and export the whole thing into React.
PipeMagic: A WebGPU Node Editor for Image Pipelines A node editor for image pipelines that runs entirely in the browser. Wire up background removal, depth estimation, JFA outlines, and 2x upscale, watch WebGPU do the work, then export the graph as JSON and drop the same logic into your app in roughly 180 lines.
Noomo's 3D Storytelling Site: A Walk Through Phoenix Noomo's storytelling site turns five client stories into rooms in a lit hallway, with animation bound to scroll instead of autoplay. Three.js doing the heavy lifting, WebGPU peeking around the corner on sister projects. Worth opening the network tab for.
Google Introduces HTML-in-Canvas API: Accessible UI Meets WebGL / WebGPU At Google I/O 2026, Chrome engineer Thomas Nattestad unveiled the HTML-in-Canvas API, which is a new web platform feature that lets developers render HTML elements directly into canvas, WebGL, and WebGPU contexts while preserving accessibility and interactivity.
