10 years of Dear ImGui (long post) · Issue #7892 · ocornut/imgui 10 years of Dear ImGui 🎉 On August 11, 2014, I published v1.00 of Dear ImGui on GitHub. I thought I would take the occasion to reflect about it, share some data points and stories, and generally th...

The opposite happened with PixelJunk 4am during its first half of dev: lacking a focused direction, for a few months I went on a tooling procrastination spree which ended up being defacto R&D on evolving the IMGUI impl at Q-Games and growing my interest in it (mentioned @ github.com/ocornut/imgu...)

Making Video Games in 2025 (without an engine) Thoughts, tools, and libraries I use to make games

lovely old article by @noelfb.bsky.social is on the-orange-site www.noelberry.ca/posts/making... love it! one thing that struck me (re)reading it was that your goal makes a HUGE difference: are u making your own game tools *to make a game you have in mind* or *to make your own game tools*

After my school-project "engine" went this way (fantasizing "all the potential for future games!"), for my subsequent project I remember making a conscious decision to not give a name to the next engine in order to not get too attached to it. The folder was called "core/".

His interactive imgui_manual also got improved and rebranded as 'Dear ImGui Explorer' pthom.github.io/imgui_explorer
It's a web build of the Dear ImGui Demo w/ source code displayed for whichever section you are hovering.

no real game engine is complete without dear imgui, it's all coming together now!

i made a quick devlog about this on my site, nothing fancy, but progress is being made

Last weekend I refined the scene tree view in Workbench. I used the drag & drop support in dear imgui to implement DAG reordering and reparenting, plus renaming. Custom behavior and drop region draw to show where the node would be inserted, and display where and why it cannot.

I do not! But please post to Gallery and sources would be nice. As with the Win98 and TUI hacks, I'm interested in this sorts of hack because when it comes to redesigning the style system I'll want to stress its features against being able to do the same with code changes.

you should be able to scale dynamically which will facilitate experimenting with it and fix things

Minor tweak for your +/- button, not sure how you sized them, but from text alignment it looks like you set size manually, instead you can do `PushStyleVarY(ImGuiStyleVar_FramePadding, 0.0f); Button(...); PopStyleVar()` to get correctly aligned text. `SmallButton()` is kind of a shortcut for that.

It's probably not perfect, feedback welcome on github, and the lib doesn't support dynamic style scaling yet (font scaling is fully dynamic, style scaling trickier, but you can follow example for how to do the boot time one off scaling).

Nice to see modern engines for retro consoles, complete with tooling: "Pyrite 64 : N64 Game-Engine and Editor". It appears like the N64 is graphically quite more capable than what I expected: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BCm...

Curious about one thing: how confident would you be that the implementation is near 100% accurate? It could be rather misleading if a rare bug in it caused a mismatch in replay.

TL;DR:
- There are few MIT-licensed fonts.
- ProggyVector was 99% there but its license stack was not purely MIT (parts of it relied on an old non-standard license, potentially creating legal friction).
- To solve this, we had a new font created.
- ProggyFonts author approved 👍

Releasing today: 'ProggyForever': a new MIT-licensed scalable font designed to closely match ProggyClean which happily served as Dear ImGui default font for 10+ years: github.com/ocornut/prog...
The new font is now embedded by default in Dear ImGui (compressed down to ~14 KB).

Thank you for the link! Added a comment there. I despite teams/companies who collectively cannot control and refrain that noise being pushed to us, and god there are many of them.
