Shaders / Array Texture

Back to examples View in GitHub
This example is running in WebGL2 and should work in most browsers. You can check the WebGPU examples here.

array_texture.rs:
//! This example illustrates how to create a texture for use with a `texture_2d_array<f32>` shader
//! uniform variable.
