LearnVulkan

😀This project is mainly faced to GUI engineering applications and advanced backend computing, such as X11, Qt, ffmpeg, OpenCV, CUDA and so on. Combining Vulkan with engineering applications, not a pure demo.

Planned Application Areas:

  1. Imaging Proceessing of Vulkan😁
  2. Vulkan on Qt 🤣
  3. Vulkan on XWindow 😃
  4. Vulkan with CUDA😅
  5. Vulkan offscreen rendering with ffmpeg😆
  6. Vulkan with physical engine😆

What is more than SaschaWillems's Project

This project is partly based on SaschaWillems's Project, add some functions of cross-platform window operation , deleted MFC code of the main function(WinMain), and provides a unified interface api for cross-platform.
Use sharelib (libvulkanbase.so, libvulkan_basicengine.so) instead of static lib.

  • Sharelib : ✅
  • Supported System : Linux & Windows
  • PNG and JPEG Texture Load : ✅ (Auto turn to RGBA8 format)
  • Volume Texture3d Load : ⭕ (Will support nii and raw data)
  • Auto Mipmap-Gen : ✅
  • Qt-binding(vulkan widget) : ✅
  • Relative path and absolute path management for IDE : ✅
  • Basic object template(Ball & Square & Cube and so on) : ⭕
    For examples of cross-platform api:
int main(int argc,char** argv){
    bool debug=false;
    StaticTriangle* pVulkan=new StaticTriangle(debug);
    pVulkan->initVulkan();
    pVulkan->initWindow();
    pVulkan->prepare();
    pVulkan->renderLoop();
    delete pVulkan;
    return 1;
}

The libvulkan_basicengine.so also integrates 'stb_image' from https://github.com/JoeyDeVries/LearnOpenGL, supporting jpg and png image loading, and you don't need to generate ktx images for Vulkan Texture now. See 'vulkan_basicengine_texture.h'.

Finally, welcome to clone or fork my project, remember to star if you consider my project is quite good.

Requirements

Supported System:

Now: Linux(Mainly) Windows(Partly) Planned supported: Mac(I have successfully installed black Apple) Android IOS

Libraries and Tools

CMake: 3.14+ is recommended Vulkan: 1.1.121+ Glm: 0.9.9+ Xcb & Xlib (Linux needs) GLFW3
OpenCV: 4.0+ (Some projects need) CUDA: 10.0+ (Some projects need) Qt: 5.12+ (Some projects need)

C/C++ Compiler

GCC 7+ using -std=c++17 MSVC 2017

Download

git clone https://github.com/engineer1109/LearnVulkan.git --depth=1

'--depth=1' will reduce the download size of repo.

Compile & BUILD

For Linux/UNIX

Compile

    cmake ..
    make
    make install

The programs will be installed in the {PROJECT_DIR}/bin .

For Qt

    cmake .. -DBUILD_QtExamples=ON

For Windows

Compile

    cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" -T host=x64 ..
    cmake --build . --config Release
    cmake --build . --config Release --target INSTALL

The programs will be installed in the {PROJECT_DIR}/Release .

PLANS

  1. Simple Examples (80%) (Only need Vulkan)
