Vera

Vulkan Engine in Rust for Animation.

Development video series: YouTube

This repository is split into:

• ( docs, text of the user documentation hosted at https://coddeus.github.io/vera, )
• examples,
• 2 crates:
  • vera-core for the (heavier) core engine (crates.io),
  • vera for the code interface (should be the only one imported in the hot-reloaded library) (crates.io),

Features (section to be removed for the docs)

• Draw anything out of triangles, by creating models from vertices, or by merging together several models you have already created.
• Send metadata for the background color, start time, and end time of the animation.

---

• Choose the default color and position of vertices
• Modify the color and position of each vertex, independently.
• Modify the color and position of each model.
• Modify the camera view to look wherever you want.
• Modify the projection to any custom perspective.

---

• Choose the start time and end time of each modification.
• Every modification is done at runtime, but you can make them start and end both at 0.0 to apply them directly.
• Here are the currently available transformations:

Type of transformations	Available transformations
Vertex / Model	Scale RotateX RotateY RotateZ Translate
View (= Camera)	Lookat
Projection	Perspective

---

• Hot-reloaded workflow (see ./examples/dev).

---

• Examples to get what's possible to do, and inspire you to do something great.

• Much :)
