Announcing egui 0.12 - the simple GUI library

• egui

  egui: an easy-to-use immediate mode GUI in Rust that runs on both web and native

You should probably read the "Why immediate mode?" section of the readme. GTK is retained mode, egui (and dear-imgui, which inspired it) is immediate mode.

  A refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust

  

Oh dang. I was under the assumption that egui was going to be used a editor for this https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/85

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• Graphite

  46 6,831 9.6 Rust

  2D raster & vector editor that melds traditional layers & tools with a modern node-based, non-destructive, procedural workflow.

  

I have looked for years trying to find a satisfactory definition of immediate mode vs. retained mode GUIs. Not even satisfactory— coherent. I've never come away from a single description feeling like I have any better idea than when I started. This README described it perfectly and I have an intuitive understanding now. It unfortunately means I'll probably need a retained mode GUI for Graphite and egui won't be useful to me, but I greatly appreciate its contribution in the small way of providing an awesome README.

  OS-native file dialogs on Linux, OS X and Windows

After getting my base window up, I was smooth sailing! Very nice to use, will definitely be using again for my next project that requires a gui. I ended up using nfd for file selection which worked seamlessly with egui.
