Title: Vulkan gui ?
Post by: ealrann on July 11, 2018, 13:44:13
Hello,

I played with vulkan (LWJGL binding of course  ;D) for a while, but not really with GUI.

So I'm trying to use ImGui right now, but still curious ; what is your opinion ? what are the best APIs for GUI theses days for vulkan/LWJGL ?

Hi,

I'm working on the vk backend for imgui (https://github.com/kotlin-graphics/imgui)

Actually I was almost ready when Omar (the author of the original) did a huge examples refractoring..

This slowed me down a bit because I was already working on that and at the end I preferred to start again from scratch

Still a couple of days I guess..  but would you maybe be available to help?

Hi Elect,

Thanks for your answer, Yeah, I'm currently using your port  ;D. I'm a bit stuck right now, and I'd like to ask you some questions, but it's off topic here ; I'll make a new one.

Sorry, I don't think I will have enough time to help. Besides, not sure I could since I don't really know ImGui or Kotlin. But I downloaded the sources, and I try to debug a bit. Who knows, maybe my tries with Vulkan will help...
