It&#x27;s very low level. Khronos noted, that they didn&#x27;t have time &#x2F; resources to create a higher level API (on top of Vulkan) that would at least match the level of OpenGL in usability (but would avoid its downsides like stateful nature). Hopefully someone will make such higher level library. Engines can&#x27;t fill that role - they are too high level and specialized already. So that middle layer is still missing.
