@webgpu/types

Typescript Type Definitions for WebGPU

This package defines Typescript types (.d.ts) for the upcoming WebGPU standard.

This package matches the work-in-progress WebGPU API, which is currently unstable!

Use this package to augment the ambient "dom" type definitions with the new definitions for WebGPU.

What are declaration files?

See the TypeScript handbook.

How can I use them?

Install

• npm: npm install --save @webgpu/types
• yarn: yarn add @webgpu/types

Configure

TypeScript tsc and tsc-based bundlers

In tsconfig.json:

{
  // ...
  "compilerOptions": {
    // ...
    "typeRoots": [ "./node_modules/@webgpu/types", "./node_modules/@types"]
  }
}

Webpack

In webpack.config.js add:

"types": ["@webgpu/types"]

(may not be necessary with tsc config above - untested)

Inline in TypeScript

/// <reference types="@webgpu/types" />
