69+ ### [ gfx-rs] and [ gfx-portability]
70+
71+ ![ gfx-rs logo] ( gfx-logo.png )
72+
73+ [ gfx-portability] is a Vulkan portability implementation based on [ gfx-rs] .
74+ It's basically a drop-in implementation of Vulkan on top of Metal and D3D12,
75+ useful on platforms that don't have native Vulkan support, or buggy drivers.
76+
77+ It released version [ 0.8.1] ( https://github.com/gfx-rs/portability/releases/tag/0.8.1 )
78+ with official support for the new [ KHR portability extension] [ khr-portability ] ,
79+ as well as a few other extensions, plus a number of correctness fixes.
80+
81+ gfx-rs team asks Rust users of Vulkano, Ash, and other Vulkan-only wrappers to try
82+ out the gfx-portability as a solution on macOS and relevant Windows 10 platforms.
83+
84+ In [ gfx-rs] itself, the DX12 backend, and the descriptor indexing feature support
85+ got improved. There has been a push to get DX11 backend in a solid shape,
86+ and it can now run [ vange-rs] pretty well 🎉.
