What it is
A short tutorial from The Cherno's OpenGL series showing how to add the Dear ImGui immediate-mode GUI library to a C++ OpenGL and GLFW project. It walks through pulling in the ImGui source files, wiring up the GLFW and OpenGL3 backends, and drawing a demo window.

I have a GLFW project in Visual Studio and I want to add ImGui to it. I followed a tutorial to install it and I simply picked up some file and added to the project but it gives me a lot of error (+200). The main error is: #error "Cannot detect OpenGL loader!" The tutorial that I followed is this: [this video] . I tried to find some guides but I couldn't found anything.

I'm making a simple opengl app that renders a triangle and gui from ImGui. I am using windows 10 vscode. I followed a beginner's tutorial from [LINK] and after getting program to render triangle, I followed Cherno's tut [this video] to integrate imgui. During compiling, I get: [LINK] I've tried to go to these files and change the header file path and it shows a new error: [LINK] what am I doing wrong? and how to fix it? steps to reproduce: Open editor at main folder(root) and use makefile command to compile the src. Now the first type of error is displayed After changing header path in imgui_opengl3.cpp and imgui_impl_glfw.pp to <imgui\imgui.h> <imgui\imgui_impl_opengl3.h> and <imgui\imgui_impl_o

I was following a tutorial on opengl, got up to this video: [this video] But at minute 8 all I get is link errors. 151 link errors that are related to ImGui. But I don't understand, I have included the header files how come the linker is complaining? The problem seems to lie in this piece of code: { static float f = 0.0f; static int counter = 0; ImGui::Text("Hello, world!"); // Display some text (you can use a format string too) ImGui::SliderFloat("float", &f, 0.0f, 1.0f); // Edit 1 float using a slider from 0.0f to 1.0f ImGui::ColorEdit3("clear color", (float*)&clear_color); // Edit 3 floats representing a color ImGui::Checkbox("Demo Window", &show_demo_window); // Edit bools storing our windows
