In Photoshop we can set the brush so it keeps rotating as we drag the brush in our canvas. I think Affinity Photo has a similar feature (at least that's what I saw online), but I only have Affinity Designer. 

Also, I can't seem to understand if it's possible to create 100% vector brushes? The only videos I found seem to use a PNG, which is not vector, as the base for the brush.

It is not possible.

No true/real vector brushes are in any of the Affinity applications. They do not support them.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

That's correct, these are raster images on a vector curve, so they are hybrid brushes at best but they are not vector brushes, I think that is a misleading.
