Try WebGL or better, WebGPU. It's so much easier and all the concepts you learn are applicable to other APIs.

I'd choose webgpu over webgl2 as it more closely resembles current mondern graphics APIs like Metal, DirectX12, Vulkan.





I concur; just last month I started with `wgpu` (the Rust bindings for WebGPU) after exclusively using OpenGL (since 2000, I think? via Delphi 2). Feels a bit verbose at first (with all the pipelines/bindings setup), but once you have your first working example, it's smooth sailing from there. I kind of liked (discontinued) `glium`, but this is better.

Yeah you're not the first one to mention that to me. I'll probably try WebGPU or wgpu next time I decide to learn graphics. I'd probably have more fun with it than Vulkan.
