+
+```nix
+{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {} }:
+
+pkgs.mkShell rec {
+  buildInputs = with pkgs; [
+    expat
+    fontconfig
+    freetype
+    freetype.dev
+    libGL
+    pkgconfig
+    xorg.libX11
+    xorg.libXcursor
+    xorg.libXi
+    xorg.libXrandr
+  ];
+
+  LD_LIBRARY_PATH =
+    builtins.foldl' (a: b: "${a}:${b}/lib") "${pkgs.vulkan-loader}/lib" buildInputs;
+}
