WebGPU is available for now in Chrome Canary on desktop behind an experimental flag. You can enable it at chrome://flags/#enable-unsafe-webgpu. The API is constantly changing and currently unsafe. As GPU sandboxing isn't implemented yet for the WebGPU API, it is possible to read GPU data for other processes! Don't browse the web with it enabled.

i think this funcationality is very important ,because think about a large scense with a group of people display with interoperable on the client side . the smart phone's system will crash out and use expirence will be a disaster without muti-thread drawing

I agree! We have this on our roadmap, we are waiting for the technology and ecosystem to mature a little bit more, and we have other features planned that will enable this to be used efficiently with our ECS.
