I think at this point it's clear that we'll NEVER have a cross-platform graphics API. The incentives for platform holders speak against it, and design by committee means the attempts are so inferior that devs would rather avoid them.
We have to make wrappers. Ideally, they should translate at compile time.
- Const-me 8y ago> it's clear that we'll NEVER have a cross-platform graphics API. I think we will, in a few years. I never used VK in production but I’ve read about it a lot, and I like the technology. Only I don’t think it happened just yet. On PCs Intel is problematic, VK requires Skylake GPUs (2015), i.e. most PCs older than 2-3 years don’t support it.
