GPU-Viewer VS Silk.NET

Release Notes : https://github.com/arunsivaramanneo/GPU-Viewer/releases/tag/v2.02

The reason I want to do this is because: I want to install GPU-Viewer app in .rpm package to check the info on my system, and the flatpak version to check the info that's in the flatpak sandbox. For instance, my OpenCL C version on Fedora 36 is 1.2, but it's still 1.1 in flatpak due to the older driver.

https://github.com/arunsivaramanneo/GPU-Viewer Ubuntu 22.04/Ubuntu 21.10/Ubuntu 21.04/Ubuntu 20.04/Ubuntu 18.04/Linux Mint 20.x/19.x

a new version of gpu-viewer is out, its a simple front-end application where you can view to output of vulkaninfo, glxinfo, es2_info and clinfo in a readable format. Hope this application will be useful to others. https://github.com/arunsivaramanneo/GPU-Viewer Ubuntu 21.10/Ubuntu 21.04/Ubuntu 20.04/Ubuntu 18.04/Linux Mint 20.x/19.x users should be able to install this application using the below PPA sudo add-apt-repository ppa:arunsivaraman/gpuviewer sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install gpu-viewer Please note all the dependencies python3, vulkan-tools,clinfo, es2_info will be installed, if not installed before. Arch based distro - users should be able to grab the application at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gpu-viewer/ or by running command sudo pacman -s gpu-viewer from the terminal . This should automatically take care of the dependencies Any feedback is highly appreciated

A couple other options than what has been suggested so far: - TerraFX.Interop.Windows. Raw, blittable, 1:1 bindings for all Win32, D2D/D3D11/D3D12 APIs (there's also a version with Vulkan bindings). As close to doing #include as you can get in C#. This is my personal favorite, I use it in my own ComputeSharp library, and transitively we use it in the Microsoft Store too 🙂 - Silk.NET another version of high-performance bindings, more opinionated than TerraFX and with some additional helpers to make it a bit easier to use.

Here is an example of using "releases" in GitHub: https://github.com/dotnet/Silk.NET/releases. Most repositories use releases and releases seem like they wpuld be appropriate for your repository too.

I've been looking at this. Is this similar to the UrhoSharp project you talk about? https://github.com/dotnet/Silk.NET

Have you looked at Silk.NET before?

Take a look at https://github.com/dotnet/Silk.NET . You should be able to use your existing rendering context with it. So you could use something like imgui (They have bindings for that) to render your UI. Or if you just start writing your rendering code, you could consider writing the whole rendering engine with it. I used it in the past for a game engine and performance is no problem for most of the usecases.

If you want something more ".NET like", check out Silk.NET instead. It's also community maintained and in the .NET Foundation, but does name remappings, friendly API overloads, and other things that make it feel more ".NET like": https://github.com/dotnet/Silk.NET
