# Reaction-Diffusion Compute Shader in WebGPU

**[Codrops](https://daily.dev/sources/codrops)** · 9 min read · 6 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

WebGPU is a web graphics technology that enhances the performance of web graphics by utilizing a device's GPU. Developers can create 3D graphics on HTML canvases using WebGPU and its own language, WGSL. The tutorial focuses on using compute shaders for image effects, specifically the reaction-diffusion algorithm.
