    if there is a demand I'd expect something to come up Note that Uber/Lyft do something the taxi companies can not. They scale to meet demand. If 1000 drivers are needed between 6pm …

    And yet the WinAPI is not actually preformant for types of apps that an ImGUI excels at There's best case for Retained mode GUIs and best case for ImGUIs. ImGUIs excel when lots is…

    I disagree with your disagreement :) Electron (and nearly all retained mode GUIs) will execute 10x more code trying not to execute the rendering code. Just skipping all that checki…

    I think you have it exactly backwards. Most ImGUI use cases are extremely complex UIs and that's where they excel. One of the most complex apps out there, Unity, is entirely ImGUI …

    I have the same cringe. I think it comes from feeling inserted as a pretense to authority by writing style. Other examples I cringe at: The use of the word "titular", the phrase "a…

    I think you're mis-understanding why Unity switched. They only switched their in game GUI system. The entire app of Unity itself uses an ImGUI system and it is massively more compl…

    I don't believe this is a proven. The amount of code being run to cache objects, create and destroy objects, try not to create and destroy objects, marshal data into and out of GUI…

    What a rude comment. It's not a specialized term. It's a common term. Immediate mode GUI as a concept is well known. Tens of thousands of programmers use Immediate Mode GUIs. There…
