Additional release numbers can be found at https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home.

Exported variables:

• VULKAN_SDK (standard variable used by cmake and other build tools)
• VULKAN_SDK_VERSION
• VULKAN_SDK_PLATFORM
• PATH is extended to include VULKAN_SDK/bin (so SDK tools like glslangValidator can be used directly)

Please be aware that Vulkan SDKs can use a lot of disk space -- recently reported 1.3.204.0 installation sizes:

• windows: 617M
• linux: 631M
• mac: 1.8G (1.3G of that being lib/libshaderc_combined.a)

If your project only depends on Vulkan-Headers and Vulkan-Loader to compile and link against then you may want to consider using humbletim/setup-vulkan-sdk instead, which allows building individual SDK components directly from Khronos source repos (and uses less disk space).
