Vulkan-Hpp is a header-only C++ binding library for the Vulkan graphics and compute API. It provides a type-safe wrapper around the Vulkan C API, allowing developers to interface with GPU hardware through a C++ interface that introduces no runtime CPU overhead.
The library utilizes Resource Acquisition Is Initialization patterns to manage the lifecycle of Vulkan handles and objects, automating the release of GPU resources. It replaces C-style enumerations and bit-fields with strong typing and static type checking to catch invalid API parameter assignments during compilation.
The project covers high-level capability areas including GPU resource management, type-safe graphics programming, and low-level API integration.
