  • I want to learn OpenCL but don't know where to start
    5 projects | /r/OpenCL | 7 Apr 2021
    Basically, it is harder to start without vendor SDK, but it is totally possible. If you have a device with claimed opencl support the only thing you have to install is their vendor-provided driver. Usually (95%) that will provide you an OpenCL.dll / libopencl.so which you can load dynamically, get address of needed API function and use that in your code. To develop from C/C++ environment it is enough to have dynamic library in your system and https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenCL-Headers from here.
