Dear ImGui is used by [many projects](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/wiki/Software-using-dear-imgui). The library is available under a free and permissive license, but continued maintenance and development have been a many-years full-time endeavor for me, which I'd like to sustain and grow (e.g. hire focused contributors more often). In addition to maintenance and stability there are many desirable features yet to be added. We are consistently doing R&D and sitting on unfinished features needing work. We are answering [community questions/issues](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues?q=) in the open and in one centralized place in order to create a database of knowledge. We have created a [test engine & test suite](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui_test_engine). We are ensuring at every moment that the library is the most efficient it can be (with strict standards such as: 0 allocation on most frames). We are designing easy and well-documented transition to updated APIs when changes are necessary etc. +Your contributions are keeping this project good. Dear ImGui is used by [many projects](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/wiki/Software-using-dear-imgui). The main library is available under a free and permissive license, but continued maintenance and development have been a many-years full-time commitment for me, which we'd like to sustain and grow (including hiring focused contributors more often). In addition to maintenance and stability there are many desirable features yet to be added. Dear ImGui has first been conceptualized and prototyped in 2012, first released and developed as a side-project from 2014, then became my main focus from the end of 2017. Thanks to sponsors, in 2020, we poured ~2500 hours of work into Dear ImGui R&D. In 2021 ~1600 hours. -How to financially support Dear ImGui ? -- Businesses: support continued development and maintenance via invoiced sponsoring. -- Businesses: support continued development and maintenance via invoiced technical support, enterprise support, maintenance contracts. Your engineering team will be able to reach to me directly, save time, minimize issues and benefit from all sorts of technical support. -- Businesses: you may also purchase commercial license for [Dear ImGui Test Engine](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui_test_engine), the scheme is designed to support funding the main library. -- Individuals: support continued development and maintenance [here](https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=WGHNC6MBFLZ2S). +Dear ImGui in 2024 is incredibly more powerful and versatile than Dear ImGui was 2017. We are committed to keep improving the software while keeping it sane, optimal, flexible. Every engineering teams will benefit from it. -_E-mail: contact AT dearimgui dot com_
