I've known Dear ImGui for many years but have rarely seen it used. Today I stumbled into a project with a very nice GUI and I said "wow, is this heavily customized Qt?" but it's actually Dear ImGui. Sure, it feels a bit Amiga-ish (I actually like it but I understand that it does not feel "native") but I think that immediate mode and good performance could be good for audio plugins. What about it?

how convenient is it - i don't know, beside the widgets you have to deal with parameters and their states
