# vulkan experiments

This is a playground to experiment with the vulkan api in zig.

currently it is drawing a triangle.

![triangle](./doc/triangle.png)

## running

Easiest ist to spawn the nix shell, which includes all dependencies.

```bash

nix-shell

```

within the shell, run the application

```bash

zig build run

```

or, alternativly, run the application and debug print the vulkan api calls

```bash

VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS=VK_LAYER_LUNARG_api_dump zig build run

```

Alternatively, use `vkconfig` for more fine grained layers config.

More verbose moltenVK logging

```bash

MVK_CONFIG_LOG_LEVEL=2 zig build run

```

## code generations

In order to (re-)generate the c bindings, run

```bash

zig build -Dgenerate-bindings

```
