INTRODUCTION

Hi everyone!
I have the honor to annouce the first cimgui-go release.
The great work has been done on this project since Tue Aug 9 12:12:13 2022 when @AllenDang did the first commit in 5ee6a09.
Now cimgui-go became mature enough to receive its first stable release.

Code version

We are using code from several third party repositories. As we couldn't use (because of some complex reasons) Git Submodules, we've recorded their versions in VERSION.txt, which on the current v1.0.0 moment looks as follows:

cimgui (https://github.com/cimgui/cimgui) HEAD is on: 0c7f67607d2aac88f5eaa9aa907a868a17144d58
cimgui/imgui HEAD is on: 8ba7efb738d6ee992ef81b451162591e43badbcf
cimplot (https://github.com/cimgui/cimplot) HEAD is on: 439f705b1cfae0e9fbe42c13ab5b45becc47d404

Dear ImGui Plugins

As everyone knows, Dear ImGui has many cool plugins.
With help of @sonoro1234 (who created the awesome cimgui project) we managed to implement the following plugins:

Backends

Because in many cases using Dear ImGui without graphics bakend implementation is annoying (requires user to implement it manually), we've decided to include a few useful backend implementations in this repository, including:

  • GLFW + OpenGL backend (based on an example form imgui)
  • SDL + OpenGL backend (also basing on another example from imgui)
  • Ebiten backend, which is a go native largest open source renderer. In this point I'd like to once again express large thanks to @gabstv and @damntourists - the initiators and creators of the code responsible for this backend.

Known Limitations

Unfortunately we do not lack issues and problems with our generator as well as with our backends. Here are pointed out the largest of them that will be hopefully fixed in the future releases.

  • Callbacks generation - C->Go->C callbacks are not easy to do unfortunately. I feel like noone did them in an elegant way before but we'll work on it in the future.
  • The main recommended backend is for now GLFW, as only this backend has full set of features provided for in the backend.Backend interface. Other backends may lack some of them yet.
