C++ Vulkan Renderer

Current Progress

• Create Window with SDL
• Setup vulkan instance, device
• Setup swapchain
• Flexible pipeline structure (currently one subpass)
• Currently draws a triangle
• Currently working on scene object representation

Goals

• Deferred shading
• Some sort of order-independent transparency
• Shadows
• Well structured components (vulkan, engine, windowing, gui / inputs)

Build & Run

• Tested on Windows and MacOS.
• Requires build tools (msvc or clang), Conan, VulkanSDK installed and in Path
• Either:
  • Open CMakeLists.txt in Visual Studio
  • Open CMakeLists.txt in Visual Studio Code with CMake extension
  • mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && cmake --build . and run engine application
