vulkan-guide VS game-programmer

I totally agree, and so do the people working on it as well as some of the volunteers who write tutorials.

There's an ongoing effort to create beginner friendly introductory material which was discussed in the recent Vulkanised conference. And an effort to make a better documentation site that's easier to browse than the specification.

On the volunteer front, there's a Vulkan 1.3 -based introductory tutorial (work in progress) over at https://vkguide.dev/

I think there should be a Vulkan tutorial that doesn't start with the boring stuff of initialization and window creation. It's stuff that you write once and forget about, and nothing particularly interesting happens in it.

Looking at my hobby project, excluding the boring stuff (which is reusable), a "hello compute" example is around 100 LOC and a "hello triangle" around 120 LOC. GLSL shader sources included.

Maybe someday I'll get around to writing a "learn Vulkan the hard way" blog post with examples.

Also, use https://vkguide.dev/ rather than vulkan-tutorial.

Once you're beyond the "introductory" phase, resources become more specialized based on what you'd like to learn -- there are Vulkan tutorials like https://vkguide.dev/ which will teach you the API and also give a bit more insight in how modern GPU hardware is structured, there are books like the "GPU Zen" series that do deep-dives on specific techniques, and there are tons of recorded GDC and SIGGRAPH talks on interesting new techniques. :)

Personally, I'm a hands on learner who actually wants to use this stuff in my career, so I'd recommend these tutorials: https://learnopengl.com/ https://vulkan-tutorial.com/Overview https://vkguide.dev/

vkguide teaches some good practices regarding code/renderer structure, but I'm afraid it doesn't go as deep as you'd like. It's certainly deeper than most other tutorials, though.

https://vkguide.dev/ This is my favorite.

I like this resource, it lists different starting spots based on skill level as well as different tracks (engine programming, AI, multiplayer, etc). https://github.com/miloyip/game-programmer

This site gives an entire study path from kids to adults to learn game programming: https://github.com/miloyip/game-programmer

https://github.com/miloyip/game-programmer This has everything. Start reading if you want industry level knowledge. Courses wont get you to that level. Also while reading you can implement all of this!

A Study Path for Game Programmer

This collection was shared a lot in the past, still a good list of game programming related books: https://github.com/miloyip/game-programmer (my favorites here are the Game Programming Gems and AI Game Programming Wisdom that I collected in the past).

I'm more into programming... At the moment I only have experience in web dev (html, css, js, react etc).. I'm starting to read some books from this guide https://github.com/miloyip/game-programmer Also I watched some guide on YouTube on how to use UE5 and unity... Maybe in 1-2 year a can define myself as a (junior) game dev.. For the moment I'm just scratching the surface.. I made this post to understand if this effort will be repaid somehow...

Check out this study path: https://github.com/miloyip/game-programmer

There are not that many, I learned a bit from books like Game Coding Complete and Game Engine Architecture. There are obviously others that are not that high level, they get more into real-time topics like rendering, AI behaviour/navigation, etc. (Books that appear in that list for example: https://github.com/miloyip/game-programmer)
