Vulkan (API)

Vulkan is an API (Application Programming Interface, which is like a set of instructions for a computer) used to make games and other applications run better. It helps the computer's graphics processing unit, or GPU, work more efficiently by taking over some of the work. With Vulkan, the GPU can draw more detailed and realistic graphics faster. This makes things like 3D video games look better and run faster.
