WebGPU in Production: Lessons Learned Shipping 60 FPS Compute Shaders

Real-world architectural trade-offs between GPU buffer management, browser fallback cascades, and mobile thermal budgets in commercial web applications.

WebGPU in Production: Lessons Learned Shipping 60 FPS Compute Shaders

WebGPU is now supported across major browser engines, but moving from demo canvas experiments to resilient cross-device production requires significant defensive engineering.

Here are key lessons on buffer ping-ponging, device loss recovery, canvas aspect resizing, and graceful degradation to WebGL 2 when GPU limits are exceeded.
