We’re pleased to announce we’ve added a new library, KDGpu, to the arsenal of tools we invent to make our lives easier – and then share with you on KDAB’s GitHub. Who is this for? If you want to become more productive with Vulkan or learn the concepts of modern explicit graphics APIs, then KDGpu […]

Synchronization in Vulkan Learn about what Vulkan needs us to synchronize and how to achieve it
An important part of working with Vulkan and other modern explicit rendering APIs is the synchronization of GPU/GPU and CPU/GPU workloads. In this article we will learn about what Vulkan needs us to synchronize and how to achieve it. We will talk about two high-level parts of the synchronization domain that we, as application and […]
FMA Woes
Floating-point math is hard, and compilers will exploit every language loophole to make our FP calculations go faster, sometimes with surprising results.
Qt 3D Renderer changes and improvements in Qt 6
With Qt 6 well on its way, it’s about time we go over some of the internal changes and optimizations made to Qt 3D for the upcoming release. In a separate article, my colleague Mike Krus has already highlighted the API changes we’ve made in Qt 3D for Qt 6. This post will dive into […]
Nine Steps to Vulkan Literacy What the powerful new 3D graphics API can bring to your applications
No, this isn’t about Star Trek. If you’ve accidentally stumbled onto this blog to learn about the language of Spock’s homeland, try here instead. Vulkan (spelled with a “k”, not a “c”) is a powerful new 3D graphics API from the Khronos Group, the same consortium that developed its spiritual predecessor, OpenGL, and other related […]
