Recommendations on how to start a small Vulkan project

• vulkanHppMinimalExample

  2 47 2.7 C++

  A condensed vulkan triangle example

Perhaps I'd be better off using the vulkan.hpp minimal example as a starting point?

• Open-Source Vulkan C++ API

  36 2,911 9.1 C++

  Open-Source Vulkan C++ API

  

Or the vulkan.hpp RAII samples would be a good place?

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• Vulkan

  70 9,710 9.3 GLSL

  Examples and demos for the new Vulkan API

Another way I saw some projects start was by using example base classes (either Sascha Willems' implementations or the framework used by Khronos Samples).

• Vulkan-Samples

  44 3,918 9.2 C++

  One stop solution for all Vulkan samples

• imgui

  351 55,717 9.7 C++

  Dear ImGui: Bloat-free Graphical User interface for C++ with minimal dependencies

One thing I'd do, is at minimum is set up a base project that meets your minimum requirements, say presenting to the screen, drawing and compute shaders. Once that's done, follow through ImGUI for a good graphics based window framework and do something neat with that.

• Hazel

  9 11,201 2.0 C++

  Hazel Engine

Don't write a full blown abstraction, you won't use it. Also Hazel is a great game engine which relies on Vulkan that you could use as well.
