## What it is
JavaScript/TypeScript bindings for Dear ImGui, compiled to WebAssembly via Emscripten, enabling immediate-mode GUI rendering in the browser with WebGL. It exposes the full C++ ImGui API as a TypeScript module.

## Use cases
- build debug tool windows and overlays in a WebGL browser app
- use Dear ImGui from JavaScript or TypeScript
- port ImGui-based C++ tools to run in the browser
- prototype immediate-mode UIs with live editing in CodePen
- render inspector-style panels over a Three.js scene

## When to choose
- you want Dear ImGui's immediate-mode UI in a web/WebGL project
- you're porting C++ ImGui tooling to the browser
- you need debug/inspector UIs for WebGL or Three.js apps

## When to avoid
- you need a polished, production end-user UI toolkit
- you need DOM-based or accessible web UI
- you need actively maintained bindings with recent updates

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, graphics, gui
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
- platform: browser, wasm
- tags: imgui, emscripten, typescript, webgl, immediate-mode-gui, bindings, game-development, web-server, javascript
