Closing widget set tabs

I haven't been doing a lot of non-work coding of late, but as every widget set on the planet strives to both implement all of HTML+CSS+JavaScript internally, and be embeddable in that environment, and bloat out to require a modern machine to run passably (yeah, I'm looking at you, Qt, though not the only one), I keep my eyes open for lighter-weight widget systems.

Dear ImGui:

Dear ImGui is a bloat-free graphical user interface library for C++. It outputs optimized vertex buffers that you can render anytime in your 3D-pipeline-enabled application. It is fast, portable, renderer agnostic, and self-contained (no external dependencies).

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
