wgpu is a Rust library. Using it from programs they are not written in Rust, such as Godot games, poses a significant challenge.

well there's also dawn for c++, which is also an implementation of webgpu.
wgpu also has official c/c++ bindings.

btw you probably don't need a low-level gpu library if you're already using a game engine...

the low level graphics library calls have to be implemented somewhere, don't they? if i'm one of the developers of the Godot engine, and I'm writing Godot in C++, I'm not going to use a Rust graphics library
