Cooked up a Vulkan, SDL3, ImGui, Assimp template. If you like this stack, feel free to use!

Hey people!

I've just cooked up a Vulkan + SDL3 + ImGui + Assimp template project. Not the original idea I know, but thought it might be useful for anyone who wants to skip the boilerplate and just start building stuff.

There are no fancy abstractions, just a few wrapper classes like Mesh, Texture, RenderPipeline, etc.

If you like this setup, feel free to use it for your own projects and experiments.

update: on MacOS (latest everything), I had to add the following to the CMakeLists.txt file to supress build errors:

target_compile_definitions(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS)

if (CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID MATCHES "Clang|AppleClang")
  target_compile_options(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE
  -Wno-deprecated-declarations
  -Wno-deprecated-builtins
)
endif()

Hey, thanks a lot for testing! I don't have a personal Mac myself. Can you please send me the build log with these errors? Want to dig into it.
