// Currently, for SSBOs, I store the per-object values (usually just the model matrix), on each object, so they
// are not in their own array and therefore cannot be pushed to the GPU as one block. The updates must happen
// separately per object.

// Since Sascha WIllems' dynamic UBO example works the same way (iirc), I can implement dynamic UBOs like that as well
// for now. Would be nice to plan for potentially storing the ubo data on the CPU in a contiguous block in the future,
// assuming that would make updates easier. Keep in mind that this only makes sense if all or most of the objects
// in the ubo get updated every frame.

// ============================= TODO: Also, check when it makes sense to have a staging buffer for copying data to the GPU
// and see if I actually need to use it everywhere I currently am. I think this is mentioned in Sascha WIllems dubo example
// or some other Vulkan website I recently bookmarked
