Basic Info
Vulkan is a multiplexed, low-level graphics API developed and maintained by the Khronos Group.
Vulkan provides a lot of options to the graphics programmer, and more opportunities for optimization, but due to the large amount of control the programmer has, it is much more difficult to learn.
Initially, Vulkan was conceived as "new generation OpenGL" or "glNext", but after the announcement, the company abandoned this name in favor of Vulkan.
Vulkan is based on AMD's Mantle API technologies.
