I want to add Vulkan renderer to Castle Game Engine later this year. Now I don't know which project to choose:) Both approaches (https://github.com/james-mcjohnson/VulkanLibraryForFreePascal and https://github.com/BeRo1985/pasvulkan ) seem very fine to me, - in both cases you generate the Pascal code automatically from vk.xml, - in both cases you provide a nicely-looking OOP API, - both projects have suitable open-source licenses (MIT or zlib). I don't mind a couple of include files, they actually include readability for me. (I know, it's a matter of taste -- do you prefer to navigate multiple smaller files, or navigate one big file.) @James, would you mind removing the "Public Service Announcement" from https://github.com/james-mcjohnson/VulkanLibraryForFreePascal/blob/master/LICENSE.md ? Don't get me wrong, I understand that you want to promote your faith and I respect that. Having this in README files, and Pascal sources, is absolutely OK. But I'm not a lawyer, and I'm unsure how it affects the legal text of the license. Having just an "unmodified MIT license" would feel safer for me.
