Built into the applications
The applications published from this site (version 0.1.0) contain the following third-party software. Each one is used under its own license, linked here. From each application's next release, its install folder also has a THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt next to the executable, listing what that executable contains with the full text of each license.

The applications draw through the Vulkan loader already on your computer, and on Windows through Direct3D 12, on Linux through X11. None of these is included in the downloads. The Vulkan, Windows and X11 bindings are written in VexelRay itself, so no Vulkan SDK headers are included either.
