A driver as slow as Lance Stroll.
|
||
|
||
Here lies the source code of a rather calamitous attempt at the Vulkan specification, shaped into an Installable Client Driver for a software-based renderer, all written in Zig.
|
||
|
||
It was forged for my own learning and amusement alone. Pray, do not wield it in any earnest project, lest thy hopes and frame rates both find themselves entombed.
|
||
|
||
## Purpose
|
||
|
||
To understand Vulkan — not as a humble API mere mortals call upon, but as a labyrinthine system where one may craft a driver by hand.
|
||
It does not seek to produce a performant or production-worthy driver. \
|
||
*The gods are merciful, but not that merciful.*
|
||
|
||
## Build
|
||
|
||
If thou art truly determined:
|
||
```
|
||
zig build
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Then ensure thy Vulkan loader is pointed toward the ICD manifest.
|
||
The precise ritual varies by system — consult the tomes of your operating system, or wander the web’s endless mausoleum of documentation.
|
||
|
||
Use at your own risk. If thy machine shudders, weeps, or attempts to flee — know that it was warned.
|
||
|
||
## License
|
||
|
||
Released unto the world as MIT for study, experimentation, and the occasional horrified whisper.
|
||
Do with it as thou wilt, but accept the consequences as thine own.
