I've heard from game dev circles that some use Dear ImGui in the same spirit - as quick ad-hoc sort of GUI. A printf on steroids, if you will.

  That + this post gives me an interesting idea... a local network interface for ImGui for environments where you don't have a native window, or there are no convenient bindings for ImGui.

      From the name and context I was expecting something directly releated to ImGui, but imdebug is not directly related to ImGui nor to immediate mode GUIs in general in any way. Still interesting however, even though it wasn't what I was expecting.

        It was the network interface aspect that made me think of it.

  Pretty much this. Basically its an easy way to merge in instrumentation and a console when you need one.
