AdaptiveCpp gains experimental Vulkan backend for C++ compute

AdaptiveCpp, an open-source framework for heterogeneous C++ computing, has added an experimental Vulkan backend that lets developers run C++ compute workloads such as SYCL kernels on devices supporting Vulkan. The backend was implemented and is maintained by Ewan Crawford, who described the work in a new blog post showing how kernels can execute on Vulkan-capable hardware, expanding the range of GPUs the framework can target.

Why now: The project announced the new experimental backend and a detailed blog post from its author, drawing attention from the GPU computing community.
