+# Dear ImGui.hs
+
+> Dear ImGui is a **bloat-free graphical user interface library for C++**. It
+> outputs optimized vertex buffers that you can render anytime in your
+> 3D-pipeline enabled application. It is fast, portable, renderer agnostic and
+> self-contained (no external dependencies).
+
+This project contains Haskell bindings to the
+[ImGui](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui) project. This allows you to rapidly
+put together graphical user interfaces in Haskell, with a particular focus to
+games and graphics intensive applications.
+
+# Getting Started
+
+`dear-imgui.hs` can be used like a normal Haskell library. If you use Cabal,
+simply add `dear-imgui` to your `build-depends`. ImGui supports a variety of
+backends, and you will need to choose your backend at configuration time.
+Backends can be enabled using Cabal flags, and these can be set through the
+`cabal.project` file. For example, if you want to use a combination of SDL and
+OpenGL:
+
+```
+package dear-imgui
+  flags: +sdl +opengl
+```
+
+With this done, the following module is the "Hello, World!" of ImGui:
+
+``` haskell
+{-# language BlockArguments #-}
+{-# language LambdaCase #-}
+{-# language OverloadedStrings #-}
+
+module Main ( main ) where
+
+import Control.Exception
+import Control.Monad.IO.Class
+import Control.Monad.Managed
+import DearImGui
+import DearImGui.OpenGL
+import DearImGui.SDL
+import DearImGui.SDL.OpenGL
+import Graphics.GL
+import SDL
+
+main :: IO ()
+main = do
+  -- Initialize SDL
+  initializeAll
+
+  runManaged do
+    -- Create a window using SDL. As we're using OpenGL, we need to enable OpenGL too.
+    w <- do
+      let title = "Hello, Dear ImGui!"
+      let config = defaultWindow { windowGraphicsContext = OpenGLContext defaultOpenGL }
+      managed $ bracket (createWindow title config) destroyWindow
+
+    -- Create an OpenGL context
+    glContext <- managed $ bracket (glCreateContext w) glDeleteContext
+
+    -- Create an ImGui context
+    _ <- managed $ bracket createContext destroyContext
+
+    -- Initialize ImGui's SDL2 backend
+    _ <- managed_ $ bracket_ (sdl2InitForOpenGL w glContext) sdl2Shutdown
+
+    -- Initialize ImGui's OpenGL backend
+    _ <- managed_ $ bracket_ openGL2Init openGL2Shutdown
+
+    liftIO $ mainLoop w
+
+
+mainLoop :: Window -> IO ()
+mainLoop w = do
+  -- Process the event loop
+  untilNothingM pollEventWithImGui
+
+  -- Tell ImGui we're starting a new frame
+  openGL2NewFrame
+  sdl2NewFrame w
+  newFrame
+
+  -- Build the GUI
+  bracket_ (begin "Hello, ImGui!") end do
+    -- Add a text widget
+    text "Hello, ImGui!"
+
+    -- Add a button widget, and call 'putStrLn' when it's clicked
+    button "Clickety Click" >>= \case
+      False -> return ()
+      True  -> putStrLn "Ow!"
+
+  -- Render
+  glClear GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT
+
+  render
+  openGL2RenderDrawData =<< getDrawData
+
+  glSwapWindow w
+
+  mainLoop w
+
+  where
+    untilNothingM m = m >>= maybe (return ()) (\_ -> untilNothingM m)
