Learning Vulkan

Setting up our first project with CMake

CMake is a build process management tool that works in an operating system in a compiler-independent manner. It makes use of CMakeLists.txt to build project solutions. In this section, we will learn the process of building a CMake file for our first Vulkan application. Refer to the following instructions to understand the creation of this configuration file (CMakeLists.txt):
