InfoReference

NuVK

Library which provides a loader and utilities for Vulkan, including the nuvk SPIR-V shader introspection and compilation framework.

Building

The Vulkan SDK must be installed on your system, as NuVK links directly to the vulkan-1 link loader, on Windows it adds %VULKAN_SDK%\Lib to the library search path.

Extensions

Some extensions may be preloaded by setting the version specifier for the extension in the dub versions for your project. Eg. VK_KHR_swapchain will bind all of the swapchain functionality, given that the Vulkan SDK you have installed features them.

Minimum Version

The minimum version for NuVK is Vulkan 1.3, mainly due to the additions in relation to dynamic rendering it brings.
