Ray-Tracing with Vulkan - Owners' Workshop Manual - Programming (Beginners Onwards): Everything You Need To Get Started With Vulkan Ray-Tracing is a comprehensive exploration of programming that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 4 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 2's discussion of vulkan is particularly strong, with clear examples and practical applications. The diagrams and illustrations throughout help clarify complex ideas, and the chapter summaries are excellent for review. My only minor critique is that the conclusion seemed rushed, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.

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

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