Hey kentril0, thanks for making this cool FFT ocean sim!

I decided not to use this code as I ended up switching hobby project, but I thought I'd post the error above in case anyone else gets the same error. I have all of the prerequisites stated in the project readme (e.g. Vulkan SDK, C++17, ect).

I also get the same CMake error when trying to build NVidia WaveWorks, so maybe there is a weird step that I'm forgetting for setting up the spirv tools. I thought installing the Vulkan SDK to my path would do the setup though.
