graphics library in c++, using vulkan

vx-gfx

A minimal voxel game (engine) written in C++ with Vulkan. Currently still following vulkan-tutorial, with adjustments to follow a friendlier structure and to use Vulkan-Hpp.

About

Plans

• ECS (maybe EnTT, or make my own)
• Convert to glfw.hpp
• Support
  • Windows
  • Linux

Not Planned

• Several graphics backends.
  • This project is focused towards Vulkan. After considering using something like NVRHI or even something like bgfx, I came to the conclusion I just want to work with Vulkan. Most of the rendering code will not be modular, and most of it will hook into Vulkan.
• Uttermost support
  • I'll try to support most mainstream platforms (not primary focus right now). Please read the "Plans" section for further information on what's planned.
