Silicon Carbide

Define the goals of this project:

End goal is to exactly know the building speed of SiC vs. amorphous carbon.

	// Next steps:
	// - Understand the structure of the run loop better. [DONE]
	// - Write the SwapChain utility for Windows.
	// - Reproduce the 1st 3DGEP tutorial using empty render passes.
	// - Reproduce the StackOverflow comment (https://stackoverflow.com/a/78501260)
	// about rendering with entirely compute commands.

	// Next steps:
	// - Access the GPU.
	// - Modify it to get Metal rendering. [DONE]
	// - Clean up and simplify the code as much as possible. [DONE]
	// - Get timestamps synchronizing properly (moving rainbow banner
	// scene). [DONE]
	// - Repeat the same process with COM / D3D12 on Windows.
	// - Get some general experience with C++ DirectX sample code.
	// - Modify the files one-by-one to support Windows.
