The library is pretty stable and regression tend to fixed very fast when reported. You may also want to checkout the [navigation branch](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/tree/navigation) if you want to use imgui with a gamepad (it is also possible to map keyboard inputs to some degree). The Navigation branch is being kept up to date with Master. + Why the odd dual naming, "dear imgui" vs "ImGui"? The library started its life and is best known as "ImGui" only due to the fact that I didn't give it a proper name when I released it. However, the term IMGUI (immediate-mode graphical user interface) was coined before and is being used in variety of other situations. It seemed confusing and unfair to hog the name. To reduce the ambiguity without affecting existing codebases, I have decided on an alternate, longer name "dear imgui" that people can use to refer to this specific library in ambiguous situations. -

I would suggest using your target language functionality to try replicating the function overloading and default parameters used in C++ else the API may be harder to use. It was really designed with C++ in mind and may not make the same amount of sense with another language.
