note about this. the C++ imgui library uses stuff like out-arguments (pass a pointer that gets filled out with a result) almost everywhere, which makes wrapping it with a pointer-less language non-trivial – in python, you want an interface that just returns a tuple and you'll have to code that part up manually anyway (or come up with a really clever generator)
[source: i've contributed to pyimgui, another imgui wrapper, and we looked at auto-generating wrappers at some point, but decided against it because of how much work you'd have to do on top to make it "pythonic". i think they're looking at that again now though.]
From the github page - EDIT: Read the bindings / frameworks page too, https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/wiki/Bindings It's still c++ like.
