Gpuweb: Implementation on Windows?

[Nielsbishere]

Is there any implementation for Windows? Or does it only work on Mac? How long will it take until this gets to other platforms?

On the Chrome side:

If you're willing to build Chromium for Windows or Linux, it's possible to turn it on with a build flag (with some synchronization bugs). Otherwise, I think we plan to have it in Chrome Canary on Windows in the coming weeks. We should be updating webgpu.io when it happens, and you can watch these lists (not sure where we'll announce it).

Public mailing list for Dawn (Chrome's implementation)

Might be worth having a visible section in the Readme: "here is where you file bugs about implementations:", listing Webkit, Dawn, and wgpu issue trackers.

We sort of have that on the implementation status page (webgpu.io), but it could be called out more clearly, say in a single section at the top.

However this question is not really implementation specific. If there were any implementations available on Windows right now, regardless of browser, it would have been a useful answer.

Thank you, looking forward to it 👍

Can we close this issue since it isn't regarding the WebGPU spec?
