## Library Updates

### [imgui-rs][imgui-rs]

[imgui-rs][imgui-rs] is the Rust bindings for the Dear ImGui framework,
allowing users to easily build up complex debug widgets and tools.

In [v0.8.0][v0.8.0], the library's API continued its overhaul to both be more
similar to the C++ API while feeling like native Rust. Specifically,
the odious `im_str!` macro was deprectaed -- using inline strings directly
(and anything `AsRef<str>`) simply works. Most functions also make extensive
use of RAII-style drop tokens to track `begin`/`end` calls.
Lastly, we updated to current Dear ImGui v1.84, and bound to the new APIs,
including the new Tables API.

`imgui-rs` is continuing to rapidly change. Over the last few months, the number
of PRs and issues submitted has increased, as, hopefully, many are
giving the library another look. These changes are improving in `v0.9.0`. We
welcome users to work off the `main` branch as we continue to improve the library.
