A vulkan-hpp implementation of the popular triangle.

Vulkan-hpp Triangle for Android

A minimalist implementation of the "hello triangle" in C++ using Vulkan-hpp. Supports Windows & Android.
For whoever is learning vulkan by following the vulkan-tutorial and wants to quickly check the Vulkan-hpp equivalent code, this is for you. And with no surprises, most of the vulkan logic was based on that tutorial.

Highlights:

• C++ first (e.g. avoided Java where possible)
• Terminal friendly with no need to resort to IDEs like Visual Studio
• Modern and clean CMake
• Some inline comments explaining vulkan code
• Android support with clutter free gradle files
