Vulkan Cookbook
內容描述
Work through recipes to unlock the full potential of the next generation graphics API―Vulkan
About This Book
This book explores a wide range of modern graphics programming techniques and GPU compute methods to make the best use of the Vulkan API
Learn techniques that can be applied to a wide range of platforms desktop, smartphones, and embedded devices
Get an idea on the graphics engine with multi-platform support and learn exciting imaging processing and post-processing techniques
Who This Book Is For
This book is ideal for developers who know C/C++ languages, have some basic familiarity with graphics programming, and now want to take advantage of the new Vulkan API in the process of building next generation computer graphics. Some basic familiarity of Vulkan would be useful to follow the recipes. OpenGL developers who want to take advantage of the Vulkan API will also find this book useful.
