Developers praise the Steam Deck: 'It just works, for real'
I'm not a graphics programmer, but I've found these two resources to be illuminating: "How hard is Vulkan really? from GDC 2018", and id's comments in 2016 that Xbox does not use the same code paths as desktop D3D. The fellow giving the first presentation converted Doom 3 to Vulkan by himself as a starter project while on parental leave.
