Guide to handling Vulkan swapchain recreation during window resize, covering GPU synchronization, resource rebuilding, and recovery from surface loss.
Vulkan 1.0 mandates the VK_KHR_swapchain extension, while Vulkan 1.1 promotes swapchain functionality to core; however, many drivers still expose the extension for backward compatibility, creating ambiguity about whether it must be enabled. The specification does not define which present mode a driver should fall back to when VK_PRESENT_MODE_MAILBOX_KHR cann
Variable frame intervals when using VK_PRESENT_MODE_FIFO_KHR on adaptive‑sync displays The goal is to verify whether presenting images with VK_PRESENT_MODE_FIFO_KHR yields a stable frame interval on a monitor whose refresh rate can change dynamically (e.g., FreeSync, G‑Sync). Because the Vulkan specification does not define exact presentation timestamps rela
