I'm out of the loop on this one... What's the purpose of an Intermediate Graphics Library? Don't we have Vulkan already?
it allows you to write graphics code in a backend-independent manner (supporting vulkan and metal for example), looking a little closer, it looks like a nice level of abstraction over various rendering backends ๐
