This is a Kotlin binding for the Vulkan API. It extends the LWJGL Vulkan binding with Kotlin features and object-oriented API. The goal is to provide a more Kotlin-friendly API for Vulkan and to make it easier to use Vulkan in Kotlin projects.
Name subject to change.
Be aware that the API is subject to change. This project is still in the early stages of development.
I'm relatively new to Vulkan, so I may have missed some important details. This is also a hobby project, so I don't guarantee that I'll be able to work on it consistently.
The documentation is still a work in progress. See Bindings for a description of how the Vulkan API is exposed from this library.
This project includes a code generator that generates the Kotlin bindings from the Vulkan API specification and reflection data from the LWJGL Vulkan binding.
There are some standalone classes in the src/main/kotlin directory that are not generated.
This project uses Gradle. To build the project, run ./gradlew build. This will download the necessary dependencies,
including a snapshot of the vulkan-docs repository and LWJGL Vulkan binding. The code generator will then generate the
Kotlin bindings and compile the project.
Currently, I haven't published this library to any repositories. To include it in your project, you can clone this repository and publish it to your local Maven repository. I also haven't put any effort into the dependency management.
