★★★★★

Vulkan Essentials offers a compelling take on programming, though not without flaws. While the treatment of vulkan is excellent, I found the sections on Books less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about ai that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing programming more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Books will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Computers & Technology, if not the definitive work.

I absolutely loved Vulkan Essentials! It completely changed my perspective on programming. At first I wasn't sure about ai, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Programming is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in simulation. What I appreciated most was how the book made ai feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
