Nice! Wondering about the perf impact, but I guess if the developer isnt using too crazy data structures, the HLSL generated should be similar
Just realized it would enable better debugging and better support for running the same on CPUs multi threaded too ! Nice !
This is very cool! I hope this code get supporting in Unity / Godot and better still gets some (financial) love too.
I'd love to see some examples for non-graphics applications if applicable (eg. use a shader to do some kind of more general parallel compute task).
Came to check this exact use case out... sad to hear there's no examples yet.
At first I was skeptical if this can work, because GPU and CPU are quite different architecturally.. But this is what's powering Paint.NET 5.0 and the benefit appears to be that you have GPU acceleration with an easy CPU fallback.
I really like this kind of projects, because they broaden the access to GPGPU programming beyond the usual ones (C, C++, Fortran, shader languages).
Kudos for going at it.
