Any way to run this kind of thing outside the browser? Chrome hasn't enabled WebGPU on Linux yet.


I've got it running on Chrome v113 beta on Ubuntu with an older AMD RX 580. The feature flags don't seem to be taking for me in chrome GUI but if you start chrome from terminal like this it works.

google-chrome --enable-unsafe-webgpu --enable-features=Vulkan,UseSkiaRenderer --enable-dawn-features=disable_robustness

GPU doesn't work in --headless though.
