Expand description
Describes a processing operation that will execute on the Vulkan device.
In Vulkan, before you can add a draw or a compute command to a command buffer you have to create a pipeline object that describes this command.
When you create a pipeline object, the implementation will usually generate some GPU machine code that will execute the operation (similar to a compiler that generates an executable for the CPU). Consequently it is a CPU-intensive operation that should be performed at initialization or during a loading screen.
