I didn't even notice who I was replying to at first - so let me start by saying thank you for Ghostty. I spend a great deal of my day in it, and it's a beautifully put together piece of software. I appreciate the work you do and admire your attitude to software and life in general. Enjoy your windfall, ignore the haters, and my best wishes to you and your family with the upcoming addition.
The project I'm mostly working on uses the wgpu crate, https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu, which may be of interest if writing cross-platform GPU code. (Though obviously if using Rust, not Zig). With it my project easily runs on Windows (via DX12), Linux (via Vulkan), macOS (via Metal), and directly on the web via Wasm/WebGPU. It is a "lowest common denominator", but good enough for most use-cases.
That said, ever with simple shaders I had to implement some workarounds for Xcode issues (e.g. https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/8111). But still vastly preferable to other debugging approaches and has been indispensable in tracking down a few bugs.

I'm running a 6900XT on Arch and have no problems so far. Steam, Heroic launcher and every game i tried so far worked like a charm. You can even OC with LACT [1] if you want to.

- Project mention: CubeCL: GPU Kernels in Rust for CUDA, ROCm, and WGPU | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-23
Agreed! I was looking through the summation example < https://github.com/tracel-ai/cubecl/blob/main/examples/sum_t...> and it seems like the primary focus is on the more traditional pre-2018 GPU programming without explicit warp-level operations, asynchrony, atomics, barriers, or countless tensor-core operations.
The project feels very nice and it would be great to have more notes in the README on the excluded functionality to better scope its applicability in more advanced GPGPU scenarios.

macmon
🦀⚙️ Sudoless performance monitoring for Apple Silicon processors. CPU / GPU / RAM usage, power consumption & temperature 🌡️
In recent years, new terminal emulators have appeared. I tried using them mainly for testing macmon. A couple of years ago, I tried switching to kitty, which was faster due to GPU acceleration. However, it required too much customization and still looked very non-native for macOS. GPU acceleration was added to iTerm as well, so I stayed with it.

Getting CUDA working from Rust was... an adventure. I'm using cudarc which provides safe Rust bindings.
