SPIRV-Cross

SPIRV-Cross.NET is a .NET5 low-level bindings for SPIRV-Cross.

Ideas and generator part is based on Vortice.Vulkan

Overview

SPIRV-Cross is a tool designed for parsing and converting SPIR-V to other shader languages.

Features

• Convert SPIR-V to readable, usable and efficient GLSL
• Convert SPIR-V to readable, usable and efficient Metal Shading Language (MSL)
• Convert SPIR-V to readable, usable and efficient HLSL
• Reflection API to simplify the creation of Vulkan pipeline layouts
• Reflection API to modify and tweak OpDecorations
• Supports "all" of vertex, fragment, tessellation, geometry and compute shaders.
