My goal is to learn Vulkan.

I am looking to either create my own cross platform window creation in C++ or use GLFW.

Is GLFW a good place to start or is there something better I should being using?

GLFW makes a good place to start for Vulkan, and there are a number of tutorials available if you search for “GLFW Vulkan tutorial”.

Good luck and happy learning!
