Even if you use OpenGL you still need to write shaders.

- jplusequalt 3mo agoOpenGL 1.x is older than the hills.
- badsectoracula 3mo agoIt is also the simplest and most widely available one[0], working from decades old PCs to whatever is latest one, not only from the official drivers but also 3rd party implementations[1] that target other lower level APIs for environments where there isn't an official implementation. [0] on open platforms at least [1] it most likely wont be a 100% compliant one (even SGI had trouble on that front :-P) but in practice it'd be usable
- m-schuetz 3mo agoShaders aren't the issue with Vulkan. Writing 50 lines of code for things that should be one-liners is.
