The repository contains the following Vulkan Tools:
- Vulkan Configurator
VK_LAYER_LUNARG_api_dump,VK_LAYER_LUNARG_screenshotandVK_LAYER_LUNARG_monitorlayers- Vulkan Installation Analyzer
These tools have binaries included within the Vulkan SDK.
VkTrace and VkReplay have been deprecated and replaced by gfxreconstruct. Both VkTrace and VkReplay have been removed from VulkanTools and can now be found in the vktrace archive. Both these tools are also no longer part of the Vulkan SDK.
The default branch of this repository is now 'main'. This change should be largely transparent to repository users, since github rewrites many references to the old 'master' branch to 'main'. However, if you have a checked-out local clone, you may wish to take the following steps as recommended by github:
git branch -m master main
git fetch origin
git branch -u origin/main main
git remote set-head origin -a| Build Status |

BUILD.md includes directions for building all the components and running the tests.
Updates to the LunarG-VulkanTools repository which correspond to a new Vulkan specification release are tagged using the following format: v<version> (e.g., v1.1.96).
Note: Marked version releases have undergone thorough testing but do not imply the same quality level as SDK tags. SDK tags follow the sdk-<version>.<patch> format (e.g., sdk-1.1.92.0).
This scheme was adopted following the 1.1.96 Vulkan specification release.
