Apple made a proposal for WebGPU that was kind of WebMetal with a dialect of HLSL. The final WebGPU standard has little in common and is not supported by Safari yet. My belief is that a big part of Apple's reason for proposing a new standard at all was to force a venue change to W3C instead of Khronos, due to legal disputes they had (maybe still have?) with Nvidia.
