+Vulkan supports multiple GPUs and multiple global contexts (VkInstance).
+The ICD loader is necessary to support multiple GPUs and the VkInstance
+level Vulkan commands. Additionally, the loader manages inserting Vulkan
+layer libraries, including validation layers between the application and
+the ICD.
+
+This will not provide a vulkan driver which must be acquired elsewhere.
+
+This SlackBuild will compile vulkan-sdk from source.
