I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Vulkan API - Owners' Workshop Manual (2nd Edition) - Computer Programming (Beginners Onwards): Everything You Need To Get Started With The Vulkan API, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains vulkan made everything click for me. I've been struggling with programming for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about programming - it reminded me so much of my own experience with vulkan. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

While Vulkan API - Owners' Workshop Manual (2nd Edition) - Computer Programming (Beginners Onwards): Everything You Need To Get Started With The Vulkan API makes several valuable points about graphics, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of programming seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to compute. That said, the sections on compute are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in graphics, this could be a truly outstanding work.
