I personally use this LiteNetLib

Favorite Networking Solutions ?
Been using LiteNetLib for our current project and it is pretty nice

Mirroring Input Events to multiple computers
Currently I'm using LiteNetLib (https://github.com/RevenantX/LiteNetLib) and it's working pretty well. There is a little input lag but it's more than acceptable.

Lan connection for a monogame game
Check LiteNetLib. Judging by your requirements simply passing coordinates back and forth between two clients should work. Designate one of the games as host and the other as client, but just pass coordinates would work over LAN. Optimise from there if gameplay isn’t thet smoot by lerping between past and newly received coordinates.

Windows Central: "Microsoft to merge Surface Pro X ARM and Surface Pro 9 Intel versions under one product line"
For networking, file IO, and streams in general, there's Korio and for Java; for just networking, there's LiteNetLib for C#; for what looks like data streams in general, there's Okio also for Java; and Tokio for multi-threaded IO in Rust.

Unity and Mirror: Can I Use it?
I've been a bit "Unity offline", and even more so when it comes to networking solutions, because of my real job :), but LiteNetLib is quite good. There's also a new HLAPI solution called FishNet which seems very interesting.

can we connect use udp connection to send messages from windows(udpclient) to linux(udpserver) in c#...(newbie so forgive for asking questions in non standard way)..
This might be handy for you :) https://github.com/RevenantX/LiteNetLib

they might be using LiteNetLib as their low level transport.

Worried about server security and seperation with Mirror Networking
You definitely want to a low level API (LLAPI) instead, like f.ex. LiteNetLib, ENet, lidgren or similar. I haven't touched anyone of these recently, except the first one a year-ish ago, so I won't say anything about where they stand today.

Building the DirectX shader compiler better than Microsoft?
And wgpu has been doing this for years. Things like descriptor indexing are not exposed to the web but used by Rust (mostly) engines on native.

If they used https://wgpu.rs/ they would get directx and metal for free (:

Show HN: WebGPU Particles Simulation
IIRC it was delayed multiple times. I think the first intent to ship from chrome was before 100 but they kept pushing it off. Firefox still does not support it. There are projects like wgpu[0] that wrap provide a higher level API and I have used some projects using it with no issues. WFIW I didn't see any issue with OP's demo either.

wgpu, the Rust WebGPU implementation is the bee's knees. https://wgpu.rs/ You can use it beyond the web.

There is anything like wgpu.rs for Zig?
There is anything like wgpu.rs for Zig? wgpu.rs is an abstraction on top of Vulkan, Metal, DirectX, etc...

New Vulkan Documentation Website
dawn is the WebGPU backend in chromium, while wgpu is the WebGPU backend for firefox written in Rust. wgpu is seeing a lot of use in non-browser uses; there are some examples on their website.
What are some alternatives?
