Description

IGL is a new GPU translation layer made by Meta and endorsed by Khronos (at writing, only 3 hours old.) It provides a interface very similar to OpenGL, while supporting OpenGL, Vulkan, and Metal and remaining extremely high speed.

I have marked it as all platforms because there is no specific lock on architectures, and it supports Linux/Windows/macOS.

Supporting just OpenGL and Vulkan would be sufficient, as macOS can utilize MoltenVK.

IGL would be nice as a lower-level bgfx alternative, but unfortunately it only has a C++ API.
