 [Pipeline state objects](https://www.khronos.org/registry/vulkan/specs/1.0/xhtml/vkspec.html#pipelines) replace the biggest part of the dynamic state machine from OpenGL, baking state information for culling, blending, rasterization, etc. and shaders into a fixed stat that can be optimized much easier by the implementation.

 This example uses three different PSOs for rendering the same scene with different visuals and shaders and also demonstrates the use [pipeline derivatives](https://www.khronos.org/registry/vulkan/specs/1.0/xhtml/vkspec.html#pipelines-pipeline-derivatives).

+Example application to be used along with [this tutorial](http://www.saschawillems.de/?page_id=2017) for demonstrating the use of the new VK_EXT_debug_marker extension. Introduced with Vulkan 1.0.12, it adds functionality to set debug markers, regions and name objects for advanced debugging in an offline graphics debugger like [RenderDoc](http://www.renderdoc.org).
