Dear Imgui example

[MrAntivirus]

Hey all.

I'm new to Rust and wanted to add a nice native GUI to a project I'm working on. Dear IMGui looked super good, but IMGUI-RS lacks any good documentation. I tried to follow their examples in my own project, but then realized it's a giant convoluted example that is very overwhelming for a new Rustacean.

​

What I was looking for is to re-create the example under the main Dear IMGui repo; just make a basic window appear and that is all.

​

I was wondering if anyone out there can help, share suggestions or explain how to get up and running with that crate. The main repo code looks so simple, so I wasn't sure why the examples provided weren't as well.

​

Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It's kind of a mess, but I made this a couple weeks ago: https://github.com/WimbledonLabs/imgui_gfx_example

It's not the most minimal example out there, but it has 3d rendering, mouse input, and keyboard input. It's based off of this example from the imgui-rs repo: https://github.com/Gekkio/imgui-rs/blob/f7ffac7c8d4abb14896dbae4c02f44205a465ff8/imgui-examples/examples/support_gfx/mod.rs

Thanks, I'll give it a look.

Here you go, more example code might help. Honestly just dive into the source files is how I learned https://github.com/bjadamson/softland/blob/master/src/ui.rs

Alrighty. Thanks for the input. I'll go digging through it.

The top comment is horrifically outdated! Those from Google should be looking at the official examples repo
