+complete. The translator initially assigns resources and in/out variables arbitrary descriptor set,
+binding and location indices. The correct values are determined at link time. For the sake of
+transform feedback, some markers are left in the shader for link-time substitution.

+  The translator outputs some feature code conditional to Vulkan specialization constants, which are
+resolved at draw-time. For example,
+[Bresenham line rasterization](OpenGLLineSegmentRasterization.md) emulation.

+back-end can know the necessary locations and properties to write to connect the shader stage
+interfaces. We get the completed shader source using ANGLE's
+[GlslangWrapperVk][GlslangWrapperVk.cpp] helper class. At this time, we use Khronos'
+[glslang][glslang] to convert the Vulkan-compatible GLSL into SPIR-V. A transformation pass is done
+on the generated SPIR-V to update the arbitrary descriptor set, binding and location indices set in
+step 1. Additionally, component and various transform feedback decorations are added and inactive
+varyings are removed from the shader interface. We currently don't generate `VkShaderModules` at
+this time, but that could be a future optimization.

+1. **Draw-time Pipeline Creation**: Once the application records a draw call, the SPIR-V is compiled
+into `VkShaderModule`s. The appropriate specialization constants are then resolved and the
+`VkPipeline` object is created.  Note that we currently don't use [SPIRV-Tools][SPIRV-Tools] to
+perform any SPIR-V optimization. This could be something to improve on in the future.
