Vulkan Ecosystem Tools\n\nThe repository contains the following Vulkan Tools:\n- [Vulkan Configurator](vkconfig/README.md)\n- [`VK_LAYER_LUNARG_api_dump`, `VK_LAYER_LUNARG_screenshot` and `VK_LAYER_LUNARG_monitor` layers](layersvt/README.md)\n- [Vulkan Installation Analyzer](via/README.md)\n\nThese tools have binaries included within the [Vulkan SDK](https://www.lunarg.com/vulkan-sdk/).\n\n## Removed Tools\n\nVkTrace and VkReplay have been deprecated and replaced by [gfxreconstruct](https://github.com/LunarG/gfxreconstruct).\nBoth VkTrace and VkReplay have been removed from VulkanTools and can now be found in the [vktrace](https://github.com/LunarG/vktrace) archive.\nBoth these tools are also no longer part of the [Vulkan SDK](https://www.lunarg.com/vulkan-sdk/).\n\nVulkan-Layer-Factory is deprecated and has been archived in its own repository which is available [here](https://github.com/LunarG/Vulkan-Layer-Factory).\n\n## Contributing\n\nIf you intend to contribute, the preferred work flow is for you to develop your contribution\nin a fork of this repo in your GitHub account and then submit a pull request.\nPlease see the [CONTRIBUTING](CONTRIBUTING.md) file in this repository for more details\n\n## How to Build and Run\n\n[BUILD.md](BUILD.md) includes directions for building all the components and running the tests.\n\n\n## Generated Code\n\nSome of the source code in this repository is generated in `layersvt/generated/`, from data descriptive headers in the Vulkan-Headers repository.\n\n## How to generate the code\n\n- Linux:\n```bash\nscripts/generate_source.py external/Vulkan-Headers/[config]/[architecture]/registry/\n     where\nconfig is, for example, 'Debug' or 'Release', and architecture is '64' or '32'.\n```\n\n- Windows Powershell:\n```powershell\npwsh -Command { python3 scripts/generate_source.py external/Vulkan-Headers/[config]/[arch]/registry/ }\n```\n\n- Windows Command:\n```cmd\ncmd /C \"python3 scripts/generate_source.py external/Vulkan-Headers/[config]/[arch]/registry/\"\n```\n\nWhen making change to the `scripts/` folder, make sure to run `generate_source.py` and check in both the changes to\n`scripts/` and `layersvt/generated/` in any PR. (Code generation does **not** happen automatically at build time.)\n\n## CMake helper\n\nA helper CMake target `vt_codegen` is also provided to simplify the invocation of `scripts/generate_source.py` from the build directory:\n\n```bash\ncmake -S . -B build -D VT_CODEGEN=ON\ncmake --build build --target vt_codegen\n```\n\n## Version Tagging Scheme\n\nUpdates to this repository which correspond to a new Vulkan specification release are tagged using the following format: `v\u003c`_`version`_`\u003e` (e.g., `v1.3.266`).\n\n**Note**: Marked version releases have undergone thorough testing but do not imply the same quality level as SDK tags. SDK tags follow the `vulkan-sdk-\u003c`_`version`_`\u003e.\u003c`_`patch`_`\u003e` format (e.g., `vulkan-sdk-1.3.266.0`).\n\nThis scheme was adopted following the `1.3.266` Vulkan specification release.\n\n## License\nThis work is released as open source under a [Apache-style license](LICENSE.txt) from Khronos including a Khronos copyright.\n\n## Acknowledgements\nWhile this project has been developed primarily by LunarG, Inc., there are many other companies and individuals making this possible: Valve Corporation, funding project development.\n","funding_links":[],"categories":["Graphic Libraries \u0026 Renderers","C++","Tools","Graphics"],"sub_categories":["Data Management"],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FLunarG%2FVulkanTools","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2FLunarG%2FVulkanTools","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FLunarG%2FVulkanTools/lists"}
