Lava is just an experimental playground, I do not recommend using it in a production setting.
Lava is a toy C++ library composed of classes that make it easy to create and manage Vulkan
objects. Each Lava class is defined by a single header with no dependencies on anything other than
vulkan.h and the STL.
For more information, see the documentation.
Scope
Lava does not include a materials system, a scene graph, an asset loader, or any platform-specific functionality like windowing and events.
Lava is implemented with a subset of C++14 that forbids RTTI, exceptions, and the use of
<iostream>. The public API uses a very narrow subset of C++ whereby classes contain nothing but
methods.
The core library has no dependencies on any third-party libraries other than the single-file vk_mem_alloc.h library and spdlog, which are included in the repo for convenience.
Supported platforms
Lava supports macOS via MoltenVK, as well as Linux and Android. It should be easy to extend to other platforms in the future.
