The article discusses the integration of WebGPU with Skia, a graphics library that enhances the rendering capabilities of web applications. It highlights the advantages of using WebGPU for improved performance and efficiency in graphics processing, enabling developers to create more complex and visually appealing applications. Additionally, the article explores technical aspects of the implementation and its implications for web graphics.

Skia has introduced Graphite, a new rasterization backend for Chrome that enhances performance on Apple Silicon Macs by utilizing modern graphics APIs and multithreading. Graphite improves Chrome's graphics capabilities, achieving better Motionmark scores and real-world performance metrics while addressing previous limitations found in the older Ganesh backend. Future plans include further optimizations and the implementation of GPU compute-based path rasterization.
