Crate nannou_wgpu[−][src]
Expand description
Items related to wgpu and its integration in nannou!
WebGPU is the portable graphics specification that nannou targets allowing us to write code that is both fast and allows us to target a wide range of platforms. wgpu is the name of the crate we use that implements this specification.
This crate re-exports the entire wgpu crate along with all of its documentation while also
adding some additional items that makes wgpu easier to use alongside nannou.
The image feature enables easier interoperation with the image crate, including functions
for uploading textures from image files.
The capturer feature provides the wgpu::TextureCapturer API that aims to simplify the
process of downloading textures from the GPU and easily save them as image files. As an
example, this is particularly useful for recording the contents of a window or sketch.
Note that when using nannou_wgpu via nannou::wgpu, both features are enabled by default.

Modules
A set of useful descriptors for blending colours!
The functions within this module use unsafe in order to retrieve their input as a slice of
bytes. This is necessary in order to upload data to the GPU via the wgpu
DeviceExt::create_buffer_init buffer constructor. This method is unsafe as the type T may contain
padding which is considered to be uninitialised memory in Rust and may potentially lead to
undefined behaviour.
