Sample project for vulkan tutorial and trials

Vulkan Linux Learning

Setup

Install dependencies for vulkan development from this Vulkan Tutorial

Skip the makefile section as this project uses cmake.

The build script can be modified for a different IDE (Uses CodeLite as is).

I'm currently using Code - OSS with the c++ and cmake extensions from this Tutorial. If you are also running Arch you will need to manually install the C++ extension from Microsoft (They use a different store from what I gather).

Arch + Code - OSS

sudo pacman -S vulkan-devel

sudo pacman -S glfw-x11

sudo pacman -S glm glew

sudo pacman -S shaderc

sudo pacman -S libxi libxxf86vm

git clone https://github.com/rassweiler/learning-vulkan.git

• Download c++ extension for Code - OSS and install it manually (Install from VSIX menu option).
• Select a compiler kit: Open command menu (ctrl-shift-p) and run Cmake: Select A Kit.
• Select a build variant: Open command menu (ctrl-shift-p) and run Cmake: Select Variant.
• Configure Cmake: Open command menu (ctrl-shift-p) and run Cmake: Configure.
• Build Project: Open command menu (ctrl-shift-p) and run Cmake: Build (Or press build button at bottom of window).

Other IDE

If not using Code - OSS then run the cmake command for your generator of choice
