+## <a name="Shaders"></a> Shaders
+
+Vulkan consumes shaders in an intermediate representation called SPIR-V. This makes it possible to use different shader languages by compiling them to that bytecode format. The primary shader language used here is [GLSL](data/shaders) but thanks to an external contribution you'll also find [HLSL](data/hlsl) shader sources.
