I wanted to do some experimentation with Vulkan using D. None of the projects that I found (derelict-vulkan, d-vulkan and erupted) work.
Are there D bindings to Vulkan that actually work?
strictly speaking you don't need a binding, you can access C code directly as long as you write compatible header definitions for the parts of vulkan you are actually using in your code.
eg extern(C) int someExternalCLibraryFunction ();
auto a = someExternalCLibraryFunction();
Just make sure that you link to that C Library when you build.
If you do this on an as needed basis It's not too painful.
