Compute shader example that uses two passes and shared compute shader memory for simulating a N-Body particle system.

Dynamic uniform buffers are used for rendering multiple objects with separate matrices stored in a single uniform buffer object, that are addressed dynamically.

Implements a high dynamic range rendering pipeline using 16/32 bit floating point precision for all calculations.

Uses the instancing feature for rendering many instances of the same mesh from a single vertex buffer with variable parameters and textures.

Separate image and samplers, both in the application and the shaders. The sample demonstrates how to use different samplers for the same image without the need to recreate descriptors.

Uses a tessellation shader for rendering a terrain with dynamic level-of-detail and frustum culling.

Loading and rendering of a 2D texture map from a file.

Generates a complete mip-chain for a texture at runtime instead of loading it from a file.

Converts High Level Shading Language (HLSL) shaders to Vulkan-compatible SPIR-V.

Using timestamp queries for profiling GPU workloads.

A sample that implements best practices in handling swapchain recreation, for example due to window resizing or present mode changes.

A sample that implements an order-independent transparency algorithm using per-pixel ordered linked lists.

A sample that implements order-independent transparency with depth peeling.
