This is a demo application that uses the Vulkan C++ API to draw a Mandelbrot fractal.

This application is an adaptation ofErkaman/vulkan_minimal_computeto use theVulkan-Hpp C++ library from Khronos.

You need a C++14 compiler.

All the library dependencies are included.

• lodepng
• Vulkan Extension Loader

mkdir buildcd buildcmake ..make

From themandelbrot_vulkan_cpp directory, run:

build/mandelbrot

The application launches a compute shader that renders the Mandelbrot set into a storage buffer on the GPU.The storage buffer is then read and saved asmandelbrot.png.
