I want to write a compute shader in rust and don't know what crate is good for this. I heard about a few: wgpu, rust-gpu, rust-cuda, cubecl. I saw there is a lot of resources for wgpu . Anyway what library would be good for that? It's going to be running on nvidia so cuda is fair game

do you want to literally write the shader code in Rust? then you need rust-gpu in particular
CUDA is, afaik, a different paradigm that also runs code on the GPU but isn't compute shaders and doesn't integrate into a graphics pipeline at all, unlike compute shaders
wgpu will let you write compute shaders in WGSL (which has Rust-flavored syntax) or other shading languages and translate them as needed, then use them from Rust CPU-side code
