Description

Finds Vulkan API mistakes while graphics software is being developed or tested. Validation layers report incorrect usage, missing synchronization, invalid parameters, and other problems that can be hard to diagnose from crashes or broken rendering alone.

This package is mainly for developers and QA workflows. Enabling validation can slow applications and produce detailed technical messages, so it is normally used during testing rather than regular gameplay or daily desktop use.
