About the project

Dear ImGui is a bloat-free C++ GUI library with no external dependencies that outputs optimized vertex buffers for rendering in 3D applications. It is designed for fast iteration on debug, visualization, and content creation tools inside game engines and real-time applications.

Useful for

Embed debug panels into a game engine to tweak parameters in real time
Build a level editor or data visualization tool with a dynamic UI
Add an in-game console and menus for testing without rebuilding the project
