An adapter to make nuklear play with vulkan and glfw
Download the latest release from the Releases tab.
Then check overlay.h/overlay.c to get an idea how to use it.
The implementation itself has been done using C99 so far. It is using designated initializers which are not supported by C++ compilers. This is subject to change in a later version.
As a result the example overlay only compiles using a C99 compiler.
The background however is a slighly modified version of the excellent https://www.vulkan-tutorial.com and will require a C++ compiler.
The Vulkan SDK and a Vulkan capable graphics card are obviously also required.
xxd should be installed on linux out of the box. For windows it was part of the git distribution.
- works on Windows and Linux
- Android support in progress (input events a bit off)
- Clone repo
- Configure the project with CMake
- build
Assuming your build directory is build
cmake --build .\build\ --config Debug --target release
Assuming your build directory is build (untested as of now)
(cd build && make release)
Afterwards there should be a nuklear-glfw-vulkan.h file in your build/release directory
containing a standalone version which has all the shaders inlined.
Please ignore any compile warnings (but report errors!). There is a simple compile check in place which just checks that replacing the shaders worked.
- Proper buildchain that outputs a single header only file (building blocks all there)
- Clarify where external requirements should be placed (glfw, nuklear)
- Fix wacky input
- Use correct blending (currently somewhat off)
- implement resize
- check performance
- cross platform tests
- proper example (incl. interaction)
- dynamic scissor
- implement test to check if released header works
- Alexander Overvoorde for his excellent tutorial
- Sascha Willems for his vulkan examples
You will find that I used large portions of the code from their repos.
Also the creators of nuklear and glfw obviously :)
The adapter is based on the glfw_opengl3 variant of nuklear.
