Metal 1.0 was ultra-limited; it was more MVP than anything else.
It was done exactly for the Apple to be "first". The initial Vulkan release was more comprehensive than Metal 2 in 2017.
- bronxbomber92 7y agoMetal 1.0 reflected the capabilities of mobile GPUs at the time. Apple is not in a race with Khronos.
