It was written from scratch with a custom OpenGL renderer (a DirectX port is in progress for Windows) and a custom IMGUI layer on top.

You mean all those complex UI stuff code is written in immediate GUI? How maintainable/readable is the resulting code?

[vjekoslav]

Way more maintainable than anything from MS that I'd have to deal with.

How about the CPU usage? Running a main loop at 60hz for a file manager sounds bit overkill.

Agree about the MS offerings. That's why I use cross-platform frameworks (wx, qt) even for the Win-only apps.

Give the demo a try. I compared the CPU usage to the win10 file explorer, and they look identical (both are minuscule); it's super impressive.

How is the support for CJK and insane Unicode like emoji surrogates? Dealing with some of those edge cases can break a man.
