-In order to run this example, you will need the following dependencies:
-
-* REQUIRED
-    + Vulkan Kompute library must be accessible
-    + The Vulkan SDK must be installed
-* OPTIONAL
-    + SPDLOG - for logging
-    + FMT - for text formatting

-We will cover how you can install Vulkan Kompute in the next section.

-For the Vulkan SDK, the simplest way to install it is through [their website](https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home). You just have to follow the instructions for the relevant platform.
-
-For the other libraries, because they are optional you can just make sure you build and install Kompute with these disabled (this will be covered in more detail below).
-
-Alternatively you can use package managers such as vcpkg to help you install them, although to simplify things you can start without the dependencies first.

 ## Building the example
 
 You will notice that it's a standalone project, so you can re-use it for your application.
