Description: A high-level API is a programming interface that provides a higher level of abstraction for developers, making it easier to work with low-level graphics APIs such as Vulkan. Vulkan, a low-level graphics and compute API, allows detailed control over the GPU, but its complexity can be a barrier for many developers. High-level APIs are therefore designed to simplify this interaction, offering predefined functions and data structures that hide the underlying complexity. This allows developers to focus on the logic of their application rather than dealing with the technical details of graphics resource management. These APIs often include features such as automatic memory management, simplified creation of graphics objects, and integration of debugging tools. By providing a more accessible environment, high-level APIs encourage innovation and the rapid creation of graphical applications, allowing both novice and experienced developers to leverage the potential of low-level graphics APIs without having to master all their technical aspects. In summary, a high-level API acts as a bridge between the complexity of low-level graphics APIs and the need for developers to create efficient and effective graphical applications.
