What's the best way to learn Metal?

1. metal-rs

   1 5 677 7.6 Rust

   Deprecated Rust bindings for Metal

   

   I found working in rust with these bindings much easier https://github.com/gfx-rs/metal-rs

2. Stream

   getstream.io featured

   Stream - Scalable APIs for Chat, Feeds, Moderation, & Video. Stream helps developers build engaging apps that scale to millions with performant and flexible Chat, Feeds, Moderation, and Video APIs and SDKs powered by a global edge network and enterprise-grade infrastructure.

   

3. LearnOpenGL

   2 635 11,742 3.8 C++

   Code repository of all OpenGL chapters from the book and its accompanying website https://learnopengl.com

   

   Metal is a fairly explicit graphics API, whose advantages won't really be available to you as a beginner. Learn basic OpenGL 3.3 with https://learnopengl.com/ and jump to Metal after you have made some stuff with GL

4. metal-cpp

   3 16 317 3.3 C++

   Metal-cpp is a low-overhead C++ interface for Metal that helps developers add Metal functionality to graphics apps, games, and game engines that are written in C++.

   

   There's official C++-interface: https://developer.apple.com/metal/cpp/

5. particles-metal

   4 1 8 10.0 C++

   demo integrating metal, swiftui, imgui in C++ CMake project

   

   Some time ago I’ve played with Metal and C++ and I really wanted to avoid metal-cpp to understand how to bridge Swift-c++. I ended up with Swift->objc->objc++, where you can call Metal’s objc interface directly. Here’s the code if you’re interested: https://github.com/Starielora/particles-metal
