Yet Another Vulkan Engine

Yave

Yet another C++20 Vulkan engine.

Disclaimer

This is a pet/learning project, it's not meant to be a serious engine and should not be used for anything beside playing with Vulkan.

Currently only supports Windows

• With GCC 12+ through MSYS2
• With MSVC 19.28+

Serialization format is compiler dependent!

Status

Currently a mess, should smooth out as I am learning Vulkan.

The project is in its early stages.

• shaders: All the shaders for both the engine and the editor
• external: Third party libraries
