For all we know, Safari on Windows(!) is going to use Dawn. But anything on Apple platforms isn't quite clear. They may get their own implementation.

I think you meant WebKit on Windows (used for other browsers than Safari). Once Dawn is integrated in WebKit for one OS, it should be easy to extend WebKit to use it on other OSes so maybe it will be a quick way to have WebGPU implemented in Safari?

Thanks for correcting! For a moment I started wondering if I exposed any confidential info here, phew!

The Windows version of Safari was discontinued in 2012.
