Can you try running the examples of:

1. Vello - cargo run -p with_winit
2. wgpu - cargo run --bin wgpu-examples boids

Additionally, what is your hardware? I.e., what kind of GPU/CPU do you have?

That output from wgpu provides the insight - your system doesn't appear to have the correct vulkan drivers installed, so wgpu cannot find a device which supports all the required features.

Can you please install the vulkan drivers for your system? Raptor lake should fully support Vulkan

[fabolous005]

This enables wgpu and vello to run fine, but xilem still fails with the exact same error traceback.
Anyways thank you for your help so far.

[fabolous005]

Any other idea why this error still occurs?

[DJMcNab]

Sorry, I'm really not sure.

It might be possible to enable trace logging, but I don't know if that's straightforward. You might need to manually add something like https://docs.rs/env_logger/latest/env_logger/ to the examples
