  4. vk-bootstrap

    Vulkan Bootstrapping Iibrary

    Project mention: I learned Vulkan and wrote a small game engine with it (in 3 months) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-06-06

    Indeed. vk-bootstrap is a bit better with 600 lines of code, though: https://github.com/charles-lunarg/vk-bootstrap/blob/main/exa...

    Vulkan initialization and basic swapchain management is very verbose, but things get much better after you do it for the first time and make some handy abstractions around pipeline creation/management later.
