Abstract Shader Engine

A small vulkan engine for generating scenes with SDF and shapes.

Functionalities

• SDF library (3D and 2D)
• SDF interaction (eg. smooth union between different object meshes in separate drawcalls)
• Shader monitors (runtime shader recompilation)
• Shader serialization (caching)
• Text (ASCII only, shaders approach)
• Runtime console commands
• Input handlers
• Timer handlers
• Scene serialization (in progress)

Building

(Currently it only supports windows, Linux porting is work in progress, it should be ready soon)

• This project has submodule dependencies, so make sure to use git clone --recursive
• Build normally with cmake
• Side note: if you download it without submodules, use git submodule update
• Make sure the built binaries are right under binaries/ and not under binaries/debug/ as some cmake configurations will force it to be so

Requirements

• Vulkan SDK
• CMake

TODO

• Finish porting to Linux
• Audio input/output
• Rework command buffers to have a more cache-aligned draw call
• Finish scene serialization
• Improve clean-ups when exiting (memory leaks)
• Add more functions to the console command
• Add helper functionality/auto-complete to the console command
• Set up a proper tests/ folder with multiple examples
• LOD system
