Dear ImGui Bundle: an extensive set of ready-to-use widgets and libraries, based on ImGui. Start your first app in 5 lines of code, or less.
Whether you prefer Python or C++, this pack has you covered, with the same ease in both languages.
Key Features
-
A lot of widgets and libraries: All of Dear ImGui along with a suite of additional libraries for plotting, node editing, markdown rendering, and much more.
-
Always up-to-date: The libraries are always very close to the latest version of Dear ImGui. This is also true for Python developers, since the bindings are automatically generated.
-
Interactive Demos and Documentation: Quickly get started with our interactive manual and demos that showcase the capabilities of the pack. Read or copy-paste the source code (Python and C++) directly from the interactive manual!
-
Cross-platform: Works on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, Android, and WebAssembly!
-
Easy to use, yet very powerful: Start your first app in 3 lines. The Immediate Mode GUI (IMGUI) paradigm is simple and powerful, letting you focus on the creative aspects of your projects.
-
Fast: Rendering is done via OpenGL (or any other renderer you choose), through native code.
-
Beautifully documented Python bindings and stubs: The Python bindings stubs reflect the C++ API and documentation, serving as a reference and aiding autocompletion in your IDE. See for example the stubs for imgui, and for hello_imgui (which complete the hello_imgui manual).
For a detailed look at each feature and more information, explore the sections listed in the Table of Contents.

pip install imgui-bundle # (1)
pip install opencv-python # (2)
pip install pyGLM # (3)-
imgui_bundle: Binary wheels are available for Windows, MacOS and Linux. If a compilation from source is needed, the build process might take up to 5 minutes, and will require an internet connection.
-
OpenCV: in order to run the immvision module, install opencv-python. The alternative OpenCV versions, such as opencv-python-headless (headless) opencv-contrib-python (with extra modules) also work.
-
pyGLM: in order to run the demo, install pyGLM
Platform notes
-
Windows: Under windows, you might need to install msvc redist.
-
macOS : under macOS, if a binary wheel is not available (e.g. for older macOS versions), pip will try to compile from source. This might fail if you do not have XCode installed. In this case, install imgui-bundle with the following command
SYSTEM_VERSION_COMPAT=0 pip install --only-binary=:all: imgui_bundle
git clone https://github.com/pthom/imgui_bundle.git
cd imgui_bundle
git submodule update --init --recursive # (1)
pip install -v . # (2)
pip install opencv-python
pip install pyGLM-
Since there are lots of submodules, this might take a few minutes
-
The build process might take up to 5 minutes
Simply run demo_imgui_bundle.
The source for the demos can be found inside bindings/imgui_bundle/demos_python.
|
Tip
|
Consider demo_imgui_bundle as an always available manual for Dear ImGui Bundle with lots of examples and related code source.
|
The easiest way to use Dear ImGui Bundle in an external project is to use the template available at https://github.com/pthom/imgui_bundle_template.
This template includes everything you need to set up your own project.
If you choose to clone this repo, follow these instructions:
git clone https://github.com/pthom/imgui_bundle.git
cd imgui_bundle
git submodule update --init --recursive # (1)
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DIMMVISION_FETCH_OPENCV=ON # (2)
make -j-
Since there are lots of submodules, this might take a few minutes
-
The flag
-DIMMVISION_FETCH_OPENCV=ONis optional. If set, a minimal version of OpenCV will be downloaded a compiled at this stage (this might require a few minutes)
The immvision module will only be built if OpenCV can be found. Otherwise, it will be ignored, and no error will be emitted.
If you have an existing OpenCV install, set its path via:
cmake .. -DOpenCV_DIR=/.../path/to/OpenCVConfig.cmakeIf you built ImGuiBundle from source, Simply run build/bin/demo_imgui_bundle.
The source for the demos can be found inside bindings/imgui_bundle/demos_cpp.
|
Tip
|
Consider demo_imgui_bundle as a manual with lots of examples and related code source. It is always available online
|
First, install Dear ImGui Bundle following the [install-instructions].
Then study the examples below.
Figure 2. Hello World
from imgui_bundle import imgui, immapp
def gui():
imgui.text("Hello, world!")
immapp.run(
gui_function=gui, # The Gui function to run
window_title="Hello!", # the window title
window_size_auto=True, # Auto size the application window given its widgets
# Uncomment the next line to restore window position and size from previous run
# window_restore_previous_geometry==True
)
Figure 3. Hello World
#include "immapp/immapp.h"
#include "imgui.h"
void Gui()
{
ImGui::Text("Hello, world!");
}
int main(int, char **)
{
ImmApp::Run(
Gui,
"Hello!",
true // window_size_auto
// Uncomment the next line to restore window position and size from previous run
// , true // windowRestorePreviousGeometry
);
return 0;
}C++ build instructions (click to expand)
Build with cmake, using imgui_bundle_add_app
imgui_bundle_add_app is a cmake command, close to add_executable, which will:
-
automatically link your app to the required libraries (imgui_bundle, OpenGl, glad, etc)
-
embed the assets (for desktop, mobile, and emscripten apps)
-
add an icon for your app (on desktop and mobile platforms)
-
perform additional customization (app icon and name on mobile platforms, etc)
Option 1: using imgui_bundle as a submodule
First, add imgui_bundle as a submodule:
git submodule add https://github.com/pthom/imgui_bundle.git
cd imgui_bundle
git submodule update --init --recursiveThen, write a simple CMakeLists file where you add imgui_bundle, then call imgui_bundle_add_app to create your application.
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.20)
project(imgui_bundle_hello)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)
add_subdirectory(imgui_bundle)
imgui_bundle_add_app(hello_world hello_world.cpp)Option 2 : Fetch imgui_bundle during compilation
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.12)
project(helloworld_with_helloimgui)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)
include(FetchContent)
Set(FETCHCONTENT_QUIET FALSE)
FetchContent_Declare(imgui_bundle GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/pthom/imgui_bundle.git GIT_TAG main)
FetchContent_MakeAvailable(imgui_bundle)
# set(IMMVISION_FETCH_OPENCV ON) # optional, if you wish to build ImmVision
# Build your app
imgui_bundle_add_app(hello_world hello_world.cpp)|
Note
|
This cmake file is part of a quick start template available at https://github.com/pthom/imgui_bundle_template. Refer to it if you wish to customize the application icon. |
Figure 4. Complex docking layout
|
Tip
|
As shown in the screenshot, Dear ImGui Bundle provides a variety of predefined themes. In this demo, you can access them via the menu "View/Theme". |
This demonstration showcases how to:
-
set up a complex docking layouts (with several possible layouts):
-
use the status bar
-
use default menus (App and view menu), and how to customize them
-
display a log window
-
load additional fonts
-
use a specific application state (instead of using static variables)
-
save some additional user settings within imgui ini file
Its source code is heavily documented and should be self-explanatory.

/*
A more complex app demo
It demonstrates how to:
- set up a complex docking layouts (with several possible layouts):
- use the status bar
- use default menus (App and view menu), and how to customize them
- display a log window
- load additional fonts, possibly colored, and with emojis
- use a specific application state (instead of using static variables)
- save some additional user settings within imgui ini file
- use borderless windows, that are movable and resizable

This poem became instantly famous.

Figure 5. Custom 3D Background
|
Tip
|
As shown in the screenshot, Hello ImGui is able to display a custom 3D scene in the background. This is done by using a dedicated callback. |
This demonstration showcases how to:
-
Display a 3D scene in the background via the callback
runnerParams.callbacks.CustomBackground -
Load and compile a shader
-
Adjust uniforms in the GUI
Its source code is heavily documented and should be self-explanatory.
Figure 6. ImmGui Test Engine in action
ImGui Test Engine is a Tests & Automation Engine for Dear ImGui.
This demo source code is heavily documented and should be self-explanatory. It shows how to:
-
enable ImGui Test Engine via RunnerParams.use_imgui_test_engine
-
define a callback where the tests are registered (runner_params.callbacks.register_tests)
-
create tests, and:
-
automate actions using "named references" (see https://github.com/ocornut/imgui_test_engine/wiki/Named-References)
-
display an optional custom GUI for a test
-
-
manipulate custom variables
-
check that simulated actions do modify those variables

# It demonstrates how to:
# - enable ImGui Test Engine via RunnerParams.use_imgui_test_engine
# - define a callback where the tests are registered (runner_params.callbacks.register_tests)
# - create tests, and:
# - automate actions using "named references" (see https://github.com/ocornut/imgui_test_engine/wiki/Named-References)
# - display an optional custom GUI for a test
# - manipulate custom variables
# - check that simulated actions do modify those variables

Figure 7. Immvision in action
Figure 8. Zooming on the images (with the mouse wheel) to display pixel values
ImmVision, is an immediate image debugger which can display multiple kinds of images (RGB, RGBA, float, etc.), zoom to examine precise pixel values, display float images with a versatile colormap, etc.
This demonstration showcases how to:
-
display two versions of an image, before after an image processing pipeline
-
zoom on specific ROI of those images to see pixel values
-
play with the parameter of the image processing pipeline
Its source code is heavily documented and should be self-explanatory.

Figure 17. ImGui Node editor in action
Figure 18. ImGuizmo in action
HelloImGui and ImmApp applications rely on the presence of an assets folder.
This folder stores
-
All the resources (images, fonts, etc.) used by the application. Feel free to add any resources there!
-
The application settings (e.g. the app icon, the app settings for macOS and iOS, etc.)
Assets folder location
-
Python: Place the assets folder in the same folder as the script
-
C++: The assets folder should be placed in the same folder as the CMakeLists.txt for the application (the one calling
imgui_bundle_add_app)
Typical layout of the assets folder
assets/
+-- app_settings/ # Application settings
| +-- icon.png # This will be the app icon, it should be square
| | # and at least 256x256. It will be converted
| | # to the right format, for each platform (except Android)
| +-- apple/
| | +-- Info.plist # macOS and iOS app settings
| | # (or Info.ios.plist + Info.macos.plist)
| |
| +-- android/ # Android app settings: files here will be deployed
| | |-- AndroidManifest.xml # Optional manifest
| | +-- res/
| | +-- mipmap-xxxhdpi/ # Optional icons for different resolutions
| | +-- ... # Use Android Studio to generate them:
| | # right click on res/ => New > Image Asset
| +-- emscripten/
| |-- shell.emscripten.html # Emscripten shell file
| | # (this file will be cmake "configured"
| | # to add the name and favicon)
| +-- custom.js # Any custom file here will be deployed
| # in the emscripten build folder
+-- fonts/
| +-- DroidSans.ttf # Default fonts used by HelloImGui to
| +-- fontawesome-webfont.ttf # improve text rendering (esp. on High DPI)
| | # if absent, a default LowRes font is used.
| |
| +-- Roboto/ # Optional: fonts for markdown
| +-- LICENSE.txt
| +-- Roboto-Bold.ttf
| +-- Roboto-BoldItalic.ttf
| +-- Roboto-Regular.ttf
| +-- Roboto-RegularItalic.ttf
| +-- Inconsolata-Medium.ttf
+-- images/
+-- markdown_broken_image.png # Optional: used for markdown
+-- world.png # Add anything in the assets folder!If needed, change the assets folder location:
-
Python: Call
hello_imgui.set_assets_folder()at startup. -
C++: Call
HelloImGui::SetAssetsFolderat startup. Or specify its location in CMake viaimgui_bundle_add_app(app_name file.cpp ASSETS_LOCATION "path/to/assets").
Where to find the default assets
Look at the folder imgui_bundle/bindings/imgui_bundle/assets to see their content.
Figure 19. Demo assets and add-ons usage
This demonstration showcases how to:
-
Load and use assets (fonts, images, icons, etc.)
-
Use ImPlot to display various types of plots
-
Use markdown to display formatted messages
This demonstration source code is heavily documented and should be self-explanatory.

The app icon is defined by the file icon.png in the assets/app_settings folder. It should be square and at least 256x256 (but 512x512 is preferred).
icon.png will define the application icon as well as the window icon. It will be converted to the right format for each platform by CMake (via imgui_bundle_add_app).
See this demo for an example showing how to package a python application.
macOS and iOS
The app settings are defined by the file Info.plist in the assets/app_settings/apple folder.

You can also specify different settings for macOS and iOS via Info.macos.plist and Info.ios.plist
Dear ImGui is an implementation of the Immediate Gui paradigm.
Dear ImGui comes with a complete demo. It demonstrates all the widgets, together with an example code on how to use them.
|
Tip
|
To run this demo in your browser, launch
ImGui Manual. For each widget, you will see the corresponding demo code (in C++. Read the part "C++ / Python porting advices" to see how easy it is to translate Gui code from C++ to python. |
Dear ImGui’s C++ API is thoroughly documented in its header files:
The python API closely mirrors the C++ API, and its documentation is extremely easy to access from your IDE, via thoroughly documented stub (*.pyi) files.
An example is often worth a thousand words, the following code:
C++
// Display a text
ImGui::Text("Counter = %i", app_state.counter);
ImGui::SameLine(); // by default ImGui starts a new line at each widget
// The following line displays a button
if (ImGui::Button("increment counter"))
// And returns true if it was clicked: you can *immediately* handle the click
app_state.counter += 1;
// Input a text: in C++, InputText returns a bool and modifies the text directly
bool changed = ImGui::InputText("Your name?", &app_state.name);
ImGui::Text("Hello %s!", app_state.name.c_str());Python
# Display a text
imgui.text(f"Counter = {app_state.counter}")
imgui.same_line() # by default ImGui starts a new line at each widget
# The following line displays a button
if imgui.button("increment counter"):
# And returns true if it was clicked: you can *immediately* handle the click
app_state.counter += 1
# Input a text: in python, input_text returns a tuple(modified, new_value)
changed, app_state.name = imgui.input_text("Your name?", app_state.name)
imgui.text(f"Hello {app_state.name}!")Displays this:
Dear ImGui Bundle includes Hello ImGui, which is itself based on ImGui. "Hello ImGui" can be compared to a starter pack that enables to easily write cross-platform Gui apps for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and emscripten.
See the "Hello ImGui" API doc and Application parameter doc.
Multiplatform utilities
-
Truly multiplatform: Linux, Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, emscripten (with 4 lines of CMake code)
-
Easily embed assets on all platforms (no code required)
-
Customize app settings (icon and app name for mobile platforms, etc.- no code required)
-
Customize application icon on all platforms (including mobile and macOS - no code required)
Dear ImGui Tweaks
-
Power Save mode: reduce FPS when idling
-
High DPI support: scale UI according to DPI, whatever the platform
-
Advanced layout handling: dockable windows, multiple layouts
-
Window geometry utilities: autosize application window, restore app window position
-
Theme tweaking: extensive list of additional themes
-
Support for movable and resizable borderless windows
-
Advanced font support: icons, emojis and colored fonts
-
Integration with ImGui Test Engine: automate and test your apps
-
Save user settings: window position, layout, opened windows, theme, user defined custom settings
-
Easily add a custom 3D background to your app
Backends
-
Available platform backends: SDL2, Glfw3
-
Available rendering backends: OpenGL3, Metal, Vulkan, DirectX
|
Note
|
The usage of Hello ImGui is optional. You can also build an imgui application from scratch, in C++ or in python (see python example)
|
|
Tip
|
HelloImGui is fully configurable by POD (plain old data) structures. See their description |
See the demo named "demo_docking", which demonstrates:
-
How to handle complex layouts: you can define several layouts and switch between them: each layout which will remember the user modifications and the list of opened windows
-
How to use theming
-
How to store you own user settings in the app ini file
-
How to add a status bar and a log window
-
How to reduce the FPS when idling (to reduce CPU usage)

ImGui Bundle includes a library named ImmApp (which stands for Immediate App). ImmApp is a thin extension of HelloImGui that enables to easily initialize the ImGuiBundle addons that require additional setup at startup
Click to see an example application with addons
Some libraries included by ImGui Bundle require an initialization at startup. ImmApp makes this easy via AddOnParams.
The example program below demonstrates how to run an application which will use implot (which requires a context to be created at startup), and imgui_md (which requires additional fonts to be loaded at startup).

main()By default, the settings are stored in a ini file whose named is derived from the window title (i.e. runnerParams.appWindowParams.windowTitle). This is convenient when developing, but not so much when deploying the app.
You can finely define where they are stored by filling runnerParams.iniFolderType and runnerParams.iniFilename.
runnerParams.iniFolderType
Choose between: CurrentFolder,AppUserConfigFolder, AppExecutableFolder,HomeFolder, TempFolder and DocumentsFolder.
|
Note
|
Note: AppUserConfigFolder corresponds to …\[Username]\AppData\Roaming under Windows, ~/.config under Linux, ~/Library/Application Support under macOS or iOS
|
runnerParams.iniFilename
This will be the name of the ini file in which the settings will be stored. It can include a subfolder, in which case it will be created under the folder defined by runnerParams.iniFolderType.
Note: if left empty, the name of the ini file will be derived from appWindowParams.windowTitle.

runner_params.ini_filename = "Docking_Demo/Docking_demo.ini"The settings file contains, standard ImGui settings (window position, size, etc.), as well as additional settings defined by HelloImGui:
-
Application status: app window location, opened windows, status bar settings, etc. See members named
remember_xxxin the Hello Imgui API for a complete list. -
Settings for each application layout (see video for an example)
You may store additional user settings in the application settings. This is provided as a convenience only, and it is not intended to store large quantities of text data. See related doc for more details.
HelloImGui and ImmApp use glfw as a default backend.
If you wish to use a different backend, it is possible to use sdl2 or pyglet, via pure python backends.
The python backends folder contains a set of python backends, that can be used as a replacement for the default glfw backend. This way you will have complete control on your application (they are inspired from pyimgui backends).
|
Note
|
In this case, you will not benefit from HelloImGui and ImmApp rapid development features (HighDPI support, layout management, automatic idling, etc…). |
See documentation in the python backends folder.

This requires a window server, and will not run on Google collab.
Below is a screenshot, that you can test by running jupyter notebook inside bindings/imgui_bundle/demos_python/notebooks
Figure 20. Using ImGui Bundle inside Jupyter Notebook
In C++, you would write:
ImGui::Begin("My Window")
ImGui::Text("Hello World");
ImGui::End(); // ImGui::End() should be called even if ImGui::Begin() returns falseIn Python, the module imgui_ctx provides a lot of context managers that automatically call imgui.end(), imgui.end_child(), etc., when the context is exited, so that you can write:
from imgui_bundle import imgui, imgui_ctx
with imgui_ctx.begin("My Window"): # imgui.end() called automatically
imgui.text("Hello World")Of course, you can choose to use the standard API by using the module imgui:
imgui.begin("My Window")
imgui.text("Hello World")
imgui.end()imgui_fig.py is a small utility to display Matplotlib plots in ImGui.
See demo_matplotlib.py for an example.
python_backends contains pure python backends for glfw, pyglet and sdl2. They do not offer the same DPI handling as HelloImGui, but they are a good starting point if you want to use alternative backends.
See examples for more information.
ImGui is a C++ library that was ported to Python. In order to work with it, you will often refer to its manual, which shows example code in C++.
In order to translate from C++ to Python:
-
Change the function names and parameters' names from
CamelCasetosnake_case -
Change the way the output are handled.
-
in C++
ImGui::RadioButtonmodifies its second parameter (which is passed by address) and returns true if the user clicked the radio button. -
In python, the (possibly modified) value is transmitted via the return:
imgui.radio_buttonreturns aTuple[bool, str]which contains(user_clicked, new_value).
-
-
if porting some code that uses static variables, use the
@immapp.staticdecorator. In this case, this decorator simply adds a variablevalueat the function scope. It is preserved between calls. Normally, this variable should be accessed viademo_radio_button.value, however the first line of the function adds a synonym named static for more clarity. Do not overuse them! Static variable suffer from almost the same shortcomings as global variables, so you should prefer to modify an application state.
Example
C++
void DemoRadioButton()
{
static int value = 0;
ImGui::RadioButton("radio a", &value, 0); ImGui::SameLine();
ImGui::RadioButton("radio b", &value, 1); ImGui::SameLine();
ImGui::RadioButton("radio c", &value, 2);
}Python
@immapp.static(value=0)
def demo_radio_button():
static = demo_radio_button
clicked, static.value = imgui.radio_button("radio a", static.value, 0)
imgui.same_line()
clicked, static.value = imgui.radio_button("radio b", static.value, 1)
imgui.same_line()
clicked, static.value = imgui.radio_button("radio c", static.value, 2)In the example below, two differences are important:
imgui.input_text (Python) is equivalent to ImGui::InputText (C++)
-
In C++, it uses two parameters for the text: the text pointer, and its length.
-
In Python, you can simply pass a string, and get back its modified value in the returned tuple.
-
ImGuiInputTextFlags_(C++) corresponds toimgui.InputTextFlags_(python) and it is an enum (note the trailing underscore). -
ImGuiInputTextFlags(C++) corresponds toimgui.InputTextFlags(python) and it is an int (note: no trailing underscore)
You will find many similar enums.
The dichotomy between int and enums, enables you to write flags that are a combinations of values from the enum (see example below).
Example
C++
void DemoInputTextUpperCase()
{
static char text[64] = "";
ImGuiInputTextFlags flags = (
ImGuiInputTextFlags_CharsUppercase
| ImGuiInputTextFlags_CharsNoBlank
);
/*bool changed = */ ImGui::InputText("Upper case, no spaces", text, 64, flags);
}Python
@immapp.static(text="")
def demo_input_text_decimal() -> None:
static = demo_input_text_decimal
flags:imgui.InputTextFlags = (
imgui.InputTextFlags_.chars_uppercase.value
| imgui.InputTextFlags_.chars_no_blank.value
)
changed, static.text = imgui.input_text("Upper case, no spaces", static.text, flags)When using the glfw backend, you can set advanced callbacks on all glfw events.
Below is an example that triggers a callback whenever the window size is changed:
from imgui_bundle import glfw_utils, hello_imgui, imgui
# import glfw # if you import glfw, do it _after_ imgui_bundle
# define a callback
def my_window_size_callback(window: glfw._GLFWwindow, w: int, h: int):
print(f"Window size changed to {w}x{h}")
def install_glfw_callbacks():
# Get the glfw window used by hello imgui
glfw_win = glfw_utils.glfw_window_hello_imgui()
glfw_utils.glfw.set_window_size_callback(glfw_win, my_window_size_callback)
# Install the callback once everything is initialized, for example:
runner_params = hello_imgui.RunnerParams()
# ...
runner_params.callbacks.post_init = install_glfw_callbacks|
Caution
|
It is important to import glfw after imgui_bundle, since - upon import - imgui_bundle informs glfw that it shall use its own version of the glfw dynamic library. |
When developing C++ applications, Hello ImGui and Dear ImGui Bundle offer an excellent support for multiplatform applications.

Tip
|
The principle with Dear ImGui Bundle is the same, just use the dedicated Dear ImGui Bundle project template, and use imgui_bundle_add_app
|
ImGui Bundle provides tooling to help you debug the C++ side, when you encounter a bug that is difficult to diagnose from Python.
It can be used in two steps:
-
Edit the file
pybind_native_debug/pybind_native_debug.py. Change its content so that it runs the python code you would like to debug. Make sure it works when you run it as a python script. -
Now, debug the C++ project
pybind_native_debugwhich is defined in the directorypybind_native_debug/. This will run your python code from C++, and you can debug the C++ side (place breakpoints, watch variables, etc).
Dear ImGui Bundle aims to make applications prototyping fast and easy, in a multiplatform / multi-tooling context. The intent is to reduce the time between an idea and a first GUI prototype down to almost zero.
It is well adapted for
-
developers and researchers who want to switch easily between and research and development environment by facilitating the port of research artifacts
-
beginners and developers who want to quickly develop an application without learning a GUI framework
You should prefer a more complete framework (such as Qt for example) if your intent is to build a fully fledged application, with support for internationalization, advanced styling, etc.
Also, the library makes no guarantee of ABI stability, and its API is opened to slight adaptations and breaking changes if they are found to make the overall usage better and/or safer.
Dear ImGui Bundle would not be possible without the work of the authors of "Dear ImGui", and especially Omar Cornut.
It also includes a lot of other projects, and I’d like to thank their authors for their awesome work!
A particular mention for Evan Pezent (author of ImPlot), Cédric Guillemet (author of ImGuizmo), Balázs Jákó (author of ImGuiColorTextEdit), and Michał Cichoń (author of imgui-node-editor), and Dmitry Mekhontsev (author of imgui-md), Andy Borrel (author of imgui-tex-inspect, another image debugging tool, which I discovered long after having developed immvision).
This doc was built using Asciidoc.
Immvision was inspired by The Image Debugger, by Bill Baxter.

pyimgui provides battle-tested comprehensive python bindings for ImGui. I worked with this project a lot, and contributed a bit to it. In the end, I had to develop a separate project, in order to be able to add auto-generated and auto-documented python modules.
Dear PyGui (repository) provides python bindings for ImGui with a lot of addons, and a more pythonesque API, which makes it perhaps more suited for Python only projects.
Dear ImGui Bundle is developed by Pascal Thomet. I am reachable on my Github page. I sometimes blog. There is a playlist related to ImGui Bundle on YouTube.
I have a past in computer vision, and a lot of experience in the trenches between development and research teams; and I found ImGui to be a nice way to reduce the delay between a research prototype and its use in production code.
I also have an inclination for self documenting code, and the doc you are reading was a way to explore new ways to document projects.
The development of the initial version of Dear ImGui Bundle took about one year at full time.
The bindings are auto-generated thanks to an advanced parser, so that they are easy to keep up to date.
Please be tolerant if you find issues! Dear ImGui Bundle is developed for free, under a very permissive license, by one main author (and most of its API comes from external libraries).
If you need consulting about this library or about the bindings generator in the context of a commercial project, please contact me by email.
Contributions are welcome!
Three of my past projects gave me the idea to develop this library.
-
ImGui Manual, an interactive manual for Dear ImGui, which I developed in June 2020
-
implot demo which I developed in 2020.
-
imgui_datascience, a python package I developed in 2018 for image analysis and debugging. Its successor is immvision.
Developments for Dear ImGui Bundle and its related automatic binding generator began in january 2022.
Dear ImGui Bundle is a free and open-source project, and its development and maintenance require considerable efforts.
If you find it valuable for your work – especially in a commercial enterprise or a research setting – please consider supporting its development by making a donation. Your contributions are greatly appreciated!
For commercial users seeking tailored support or specific enhancements, please contact the author by email.
Quality contributions are always welcome! If you’re interested in contributing to the project, whether through code, ideas, or feedback, please refer to the development documentation.
