Vulkan support differs from OpenGL because almost all most configuration is done using the Vulkan API itself, rather than by setting view hints to configure the context.

This can be used to dynamically load the Vulkan library. Applications or plugins should not link against the Vulkan library, but instead use this at runtime. This ensures that things will work on as many systems as possible, and allows errors to be handled gracefully. This is not a "loader" in the sense of loading all the required Vulkan functions (which is the application's responsibility), but just a minimal implementation to portably load the Vulkan library and get the two functions that are used to load everything else.
