Vulkan Sample Code: Compute Shaders

This Vulkan Sample Code gives an introduction to Compute Shaders.

In Vulkan, Compute Shaders have first class support and give applications the ability to perform non-graphics related tasks on the GPU. The sample will demonstrate a very simple particle system moving particles around on the GPU and rendering them to screen as additive blended point sprites.

Note: This sample assumes you have some knowledge of how compute shaders work in other related graphics APIs such as OpenGL ES.

The source for this sample can be found in samples/basic_compute in the Mali Vulkan SDK.
