MoltenVK

MoltenVK is a software layer that allows applications developed with Apple's Metal graphics API to run on non-Apple devices using Vulkan, an open-standard graphics API. It acts as a bridge, translating Metal commands into Vulkan commands so that games and visual applications designed for Mac or iOS can operate smoothly on platforms like Windows or Linux. This helps developers reuse their code across different systems, providing broader compatibility without rewriting graphics code. In essence, MoltenVK enables cross-platform graphics performance by connecting different graphics APIs seamlessly.
