I spent one weekend going through the official Khronos tutorial for Vulcan, and wrote (understood, then typed -- as opposed to copy+pasted) the bare minimum necessary to get a triangle on the screen: it came to 900+ lines of code.

Vulcan is not at all like an "enhanced OpenGL" -- it's for experts to leverage while designing the next generation of high-performance graphics libraries.

Triangle-on-screen using OpenGL is on the order of ~100 lines:
