There are a variety of ways to send vertex data to the GPU. Since DX12 and Vulkan, we can choose to use the old-school input layouts definitions in the pipeline state, or using descriptors, which became much more flexible since the DX11-era limitations. Wicked Engine has been using descriptors with bindless manual fetching for a…
