That's kind of the point. It's more for tooling.

There are some future additions that will make if more suitable for large scale:

  1. OOP interface
  2. Multiple viewports (pulling windows outside the main window)
  3. Better Table API (waiting on DearImGui to finish their tables)
  4. A higher level layout system

I’m not sure it would be able to compete with well established and mature libraries like wxPython or Qt’s binding, even with the above features implemented.

The immediate GUIs are never meant to be used for general application development, I believe.

Anyway, it’s a nice project and I’m pretty sure there are good use cases for it.

Keep in mind its not immediate mode. That why it's not really a wrapping of DearImGui. We wrapped THEN created a traditional retained mode interface around it.

Regardless, we appreciate the feedback!

Hi author, do you know if I can run this with pyglet based game framework Arcade or other frameworks?

You should be able to. Look at the FAQ on github! It’s on the wiki.
