[![NuGet Badge](https://buildstats.info/nuget/Licht.Vulkan?includePreReleases=true)](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Licht.Vulkan/)

A thin but opinionated abstraction layer to write Vulkan Code in C# (using Silk.NET) with fewer boilerplate code.

(work in progress, see Examples folder for some examples)

Get to the Triangle in less than 50 lines of code:

```csharp

using Licht.Applications;

using Licht.Core;

using Licht.Vulkan;

using Licht.Vulkan.Memory;

using Licht.Vulkan.Pipelines;

using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;

using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;

using Silk.NET.Windowing;

var opts = ApplicationSpecification.Default with {ApplicationName = "Triangle"};

var builder = new ApplicationBuilder(opts);

builder.Services.AddSingleton();

builder.Services.AddWindow(opts);

builder.Services.AddVulkanRenderer();

{

    using var app = builder.Build();

    app.Run();

}

sealed class TriangleApplication : WindowedApplication

{

    private readonly VkGraphicsDevice _device;

    private readonly VkGraphicsPipeline _pipeline;

    private readonly PipelineEffect _effect;

    public TriangleApplication(ILogger logger, VkGraphicsDevice device, IWindow window, VkRenderer renderer) : base(logger, renderer, window)

    {

        _device = device;

        var passDescription = GraphicsPipelineDescription.Default();

        _effect = PipelineEffect.BuildEffect(_device, "./assets/shaders/triangle.vert.spv", "./assets/shaders/triangle.frag.spv", null);

        _pipeline = new VkGraphicsPipeline(_device, _effect, passDescription, default, Renderer.RenderPass!.Value);

    }

    public override void DrawFrame(CommandBuffer cmd, float deltaTime)

    {

        cmd.BindGraphicsPipeline(_pipeline);

        cmd.Draw(3, 1, 0, 0);

    }

    public override void Release()

    {

        _device.WaitIdle();

        _pipeline.Dispose();        

        _effect.Dispose();

        base.Release();

    }

}

```
