GraphicsDevice class

The GraphicsDevice provides a way for developers to interact with the GPU by binding different resources to it.

A frame starts with begin and ends with end. Within a frame, one or more render passes can be created with beginPass/endPass, each producing an Image.

Constructors

GraphicsDevice({Color clearValue = const Color(0x00000000), GpuBackend? backend})

The GraphicsDevice provides a way for developers to interact with the GPU by binding different resources to it.
