Programming Direct3D requires understanding of where different types of resources are bound to the shader pipeline. The shader pipeline consists of configurable fixed function stages (Input Shader, Tessellator, Stream Output, Rasterizer, Output merger), and opt-in HLSL programmable shader stages (Vertex Shader, Hull Shader, Domain Shader, Geometry Shader, Pixel Shader, Compute Shader). Passing data into shaders involves creating & binding resources to the pipeline in C++ on CPU, so that HLSL ......
