Egui is not the "Rust version" of ImGui. There's libraries which allow for ImGui in other languages by applying the hourglass pattern first (making a C api for the C++ api), to allow for the creation of bindings, since most languages support C FFI, and then somebody writes an API in the target language which calls to (and maybe extends) the C api.

egui is pure rust. It is not a rust binding of ImGUI
I am aware. I am asserting the distinction there.
