Avalonia UI for .NET: Project Overview from Mike James
There’s still room for improvement though. I should add, WPF on .NET Core consumes a lot of memory, due to a memory leak. It was logged by our COO as one of our users was doing a comparison.

Something Pretty Right: The History and Legacy of Visual Basic
WPF is definitely not dead. It may not be the latest shiny thing, but it works, it is maintained (judging by https://github.com/dotnet/wpf or https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/wpf-on-dotnet-7/), and it is fully and officially supported on the modern .NET platform.

Immediate Mode GUI Programming
Immediate mode is a fuzzy concept, as witnessed by this writeup: https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/wiki/About-the-IMGUI-paradi...
The Dear ImGui readme is a good starting point:
https://github.com/ocornut/imgui
...now of course Dear ImGui is a specific implementation of an immediate mode UI framework, but it's also the most popular implementation.

Dear ImGui: Bloat-free Graphical User interface with minimal dependencies
From the faq https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/blob/master/docs/FAQ.md#q-w...
Q. What is this library called?
This library is called Dear ImGui. Please refer to it as Dear ImGui (not ImGui, not IMGUI).
(The library misleadingly started its life in 2014 as "ImGui" due to the fact that I didn't give it a proper name when I released 1.0, and had no particular expectation that it would take off. However, the term IMGUI (immediate-mode graphical user interface) was coined before and is being used in variety of other situations e.g. Unity uses it own implementation of the IMGUI paradigm. To reduce the ambiguity without affecting existing code bases, I have decided in December 2015 a fully qualified name "Dear ImGui" for this library.
ImGui is engine/GPU agnostic
Themeing isn't a just a retained mode thing, you can do wonders with immediate UIs, even thought (dear)ImGui doesn't provide much, you can still do wonders: https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/707#issuecomment-362...
More on that topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1qyvQsjK5Y
My first guess would be it is supposed to sound like "Dear Imogen". However, it wasn't initially conceived of as a reference to anything. The "Dear" was tacked on to qualify the name [1].
