| `wasi:webgpu` is based on the official [webgpu spec](https://www.w3.org/TR/webgpu/). | ||

| `wasi:webgpu` does deviate sometimes from the webgpu spec, namely, in cases where the spec makes assumptions about running in a web or JS environment. Wherever `wasi:webgpu` deviates from the spec, a clear explanation should be documented. |

I agree we should say it deviates, but we should be careful to clarify that it varies only in syntax and not semantics. The goal is to remain 100% compatible with the functionality of WebGPU, with just minor syntactical differences from not having a JS/Web env.
