Recommendations on how to start a small Vulkan project

• vulkanHppMinimalExample

  2 48 2.7 C++

  A condensed vulkan triangle example

Perhaps I'd be better off using the vulkan.hpp minimal example as a starting point?

• Open-Source Vulkan C++ API

  36 2,973 9.1 C++

  Open-Source Vulkan C++ API

  

Or the vulkan.hpp RAII samples would be a good place?

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com featured

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• Vulkan

  70 9,818 9.2 GLSL

  Examples and demos for the new Vulkan API

Another way I saw some projects start was by using example base classes (either Sascha Willems' implementations or the framework used by Khronos Samples).

• Vulkan-Samples

  44 3,980 9.2 C++

  One stop solution for all Vulkan samples

• imgui

  352 56,602 9.7 C++

  Dear ImGui: Bloat-free Graphical User interface for C++ with minimal dependencies

One thing I'd do, is at minimum is set up a base project that meets your minimum requirements, say presenting to the screen, drawing and compute shaders. Once that's done, follow through ImGUI for a good graphics based window framework and do something neat with that.

• Hazel

  9 11,300 1.8 C++

  Hazel Engine

Don't write a full blown abstraction, you won't use it. Also Hazel is a great game engine which relies on Vulkan that you could use as well.
