Utopia 🌌

Utopia is a lightweight application framework built with Dear ImGui and designed to integrate seamlessly with Vulkan. This combination enables the effortless blending of real-time Vulkan rendering with a powerful UI library to create desktop applications. The goal is to expand Utopia with utilities to simplify the development of immediate-mode desktop apps and straightforward Vulkan-based applications.

Currently, Utopia supports Windows, macOS and Linux. The setup scripts provided are tailored for Visual Studio 2022.

Requirements

• Visual Studio 2022 (Setup scripts are designed for this IDE.)
• Vulkan SDK (Preferably a recent version)

Getting Started

1. Clone the repository with all its submodules:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/92half99/Utopia

2. Run scripts/Setup-ExampleProject.bat to generate Visual Studio 2022 solution and project files.
3. Open the solution and run the UtopiaApp project to explore a basic example (found in UtopiaApp.cpp).
