We aim to support all of the vulkan standard and all extensions. However, some extensions are not useful or impossible for a CPU renderer to correctly implement. Additionally, not all features are currently implemented, yet will be.

| Extension | Reason |
|---|---|
| VK_EXT_pci_bus_info | The device is not on the PCI bus. |
| VK_EXT_hdr_metadata | Cannot control HDR settings for Win32 desktop applications. |
| VK_KHR_display_swapchain | This is likely not possible as we render using the underlying window system. |
| VK_KHR_external_memory | All the memory we use is per-process, using external memory would be difficult. |
