This course covers essential topics in Vulkan development, including swap chain setup, resources and descriptors, commands and command buffers, pipelines and stages, real-time ray tracing, and Vulkan synchronization. By the end of the course, students will be able to develop Vulkan applications, understand graphics pipelines, and implement real-time rendering techniques. The course is designed for developers interested in graphics programming and real-time rendering using Vulkan.
