Have you tried running Mesa's lavapipe? It's a software vulkan backend that should already be able to fit your needs if I understood you correctly.

You meant zink, I think. I am looking for lean (SDK included), namely plain and simple C without the latest ISO tantrums on the C syntax implementation.

The main issue is the glsl compiler: we are missing a lean, namely plain and simple without the latest ISO tantrums implementation.

No, I meant Lavapipe, "Mesa's generic CPU-based software Vulkan implementation". Zink is the OpenGL-on-Vulkan implementation by Mike Blumenkrantz & co.

oh, I read wrong I though you were talking about the opengl software implementation.

Dunno if lava pipe is clean C and not pulling some horrible c++ stuff like llvm.
