SpawnDev.ILGPU.WebGPU v1.3.0
Full Changelog: v1.2.0...v1.3.0
SpawnDev.ILGPU.WebGPU v1.2.0
Release v1.2.0
This release introduces major architectural improvements and robust 64-bit emulation support, making SpawnDev.ILGPU.WebGPU more flexible and powerful for high-precision GPGPU tasks in Blazor WebAssembly.
🚀 Key Highlights
💎 High-Performance 64-bit Emulation (F64/I64)
Version 1.2.0 brings full, verified support for 64-bit floating-point (double) and 64-bit integer (long) emulation.
- F64 Emulation: Enables high-precision calculations (like deep Mandelbrot zooms up to 10¹²) on WebGPU hardware that only natively supports 32-bit floats.
- I64 Emulation: Provides full 64-bit integer arithmetic support within kernels.
- Verified Robustness: 100% pass rate across 22 comprehensive emulation unit tests.
🏗️ Instance-Scoped Configuration
- New
WebGPUBackendOptions: Configure emulation and backend behaviors per-accelerator instance.
🎨 Mandelbrot Explorer 64-bit Demo
- Real-time F64 Emulation: The Mandelbrot explorer now serves as a powerful demonstration of interactive 64-bit float emulation.
- Extreme Zoom Capabilities: Seamlessly explorer deep into the Mandelbrot set up to 10¹² zoom, powered entirely by the emulated 64-bit backend.
- Performance: Demonstrates high-performance kernels with constant 25ms render times even at extreme magnification.
🛠️ Performance & Cleanup
- Console Cleanup: Removed verbose debug logging for production-ready performance.
- Library Stability: Refactored internal code generation logic for cleaner WGSL output.

📦 Installation
dotnet add package SpawnDev.ILGPU.WebGPU🎮 Quick Start
// Initialize ILGPU with WebGPU backend
var builder = Context.Create();
await builder.WebGPUAsync();
using var context = builder.ToContext();
// Create accelerator
var device = context.GetWebGPUDevices()[0];
using var accelerator = await device.CreateAcceleratorAsync(context);
// Allocate, execute, and read back
using var buffer = accelerator.Allocate1D(new float[64]);
var kernel = accelerator.LoadAutoGroupedStreamKernel<Index1D, ArrayView<float>>(MyKernel);
kernel((Index1D)64, buffer.View);
await accelerator.SynchronizeAsync();
var results = await buffer.CopyToHostAsync();🌐 Live Demo
