Yave

Yet another C++20 Vulkan engine.

Disclaimer

This is a pet/learning project, it's not meant to be a serious engine and should not be used for anything beside playing with Vulkan.

Currently only supports Windows

• With GCC 14+ through MSYS2
• With MSVC 19.28+

Serialization format is compiler dependent!

Older UI: 1 2

Project structure

• y: Core library with a bunch of utility functions and classes
• yave: The engine itself It links only to y and spirv_reflect
• editor: A scene editor build on top of yave
• shaders: All the shaders for both the engine and the editor
• external: Third party libraries
