hum, well, not that convincing :

Failed to open window: WebGPU context not initialized. Was Platform::run() called?

Not being able to load the component gallery does not inspire great confidence.

Yeah it just doesn't have a good error message if your browser doesn't support WebGPU.

It's not really designed for the web though so I wouldn't hold that against it.

Fair enough. A little warning would go a long way though.
