My "How to Vulkan in 2026" @vulkan #Vulkan guide is now publicly available at https://www.howtovulkan.com/

I still consider it a preview, though I'm mostly happy with it and only plan on changing minor things and incorporating some feedback.

@sascha @vulkan How practical is using 1.3 as a baseline as far as driver / hardware support goes? Is 1.3 old enough now that it can be counted on being supported on arbitrary devices or platforms? Or are the new features supported in the core libraries in the way that works even with older hardware drivers?

@swetland @vulkan On desktop it's supported pretty much everywhere, even for older devices. Android, as so often, lacks behind and you might require a fall back to extensions instead.

@sascha it's frustrating that drivers are dropping the ball on vulkan so frequently as to make it a liability to ship on :c

@sascha Skimmed it and it looks quite thorough! Looking forward to going through it in more detail as a refresher in the coming month.
