Pngine declares WebGPU pipelines as S-expressions and exports them to a single PNG
Pngine is a declarative format and runtime for WebGPU that uses S-expressions to describe plumbing and can export to .html.zip, or .png files.
For engineers, pngine reduces the burden of sharing WebGPU wiring by representing it as data that can be validated ahead of time. It also allows packaging a pipeline as a single file, though the PNG requires a tiny player to execute.

Pngine lets you declare and ship WebGPU plumbing, including shaders and init code, across browsers, rust wgpu, and mobile players.
It validates the declared configuration using WGSL reflection and spec checks without a live WebGPU context, and includes an LSP.
It can export everything to a single .html.zip, or .png file, where the PNG contains the bytecode and a player but does not auto-execute.
