Vulkan
From wikipedia:Vulkan (API):
- Vulkan, initially referred to as "glNext", is a low-overhead, cross-platform 3D graphics and compute API.

Installation
To run a Vulkan appplication, you will need to install the vulkan-icd-loader package, as well as the Vulkan drivers for your graphics card(s):
- Intel: vulkan-intel
- NVIDIA: nvidia-vulkan-betaAUR
The other drivers are not packaged yet, so you will have to install them manually:
- AMD: http://gpuopen.com/gaming-product/vulkan/
- PowerVR: https://imgtec.com/vulkan
- Adreno: https://developer.qualcomm.com/software/adreno-gpu-sdk/gpu
To develop a Vulkan application, you will also need the vulkan-headers, and you will probably want the vulkan-validation-layers.
Once this is done, it would really be appreciated it you would share the specs of your GPU/driver combination to vulkan.gpuinfo.org by running vulkan-caps-viewerAUR. Thank you!
