Compute shaders support

[newos20]

Hi !
I'm new to love2d, and I wondered if there was a way to use compute shaders in it.
Does someone know if it is possible, or if there is a way to "hack" love2d to support them ?
Thanks

Uh?

I had already seen it, but this is only about vertex and pixel shaders, not compute shaders.

love 12 will support compute shaders - you can find a prerelease build with them here (you might need to be logged into github) https://github.com/love2d/love/actions/ ... #artifacts

APIs aren't documented aside from in commit messages yet. A couple people in the discord server have made small examples if you're interested.

Changes needed for compute shaders and to read and write useful data for them are large enough that it's not feasible to hack it into love 11's codebase.

Ok, that's nice.
Thank you !
