Raytracer using Vulkan Compute Shaders and Avalonia UI

Raytracing in Vulkan using C#

This code is part of a series which i am publishing on Medium. We will build a small raytracer, similar to the one from the famous "Ray Tracing in One Weekend" series however we will use Vulkan Compute Shaders to generate the images.

I choose to use the Silk.NET Vulkan bindings for this project.
