    From the README

    egui development is sponsored by Rerun, a startup building

    an SDK for visualizing streams of multimodal data.

    egui (pronounced "e-gooey") is a simple, fast, and highly portable immediate mode GUI library for Rust. egui runs on the web, natively, and in your favorite game engine.

    egui aims to be the easiest-to-use Rust GUI library, and the simplest way to make a web app in Rust.

    egui can be used anywhere you can draw textured triangles, which means you can easily integrate it into your game engine of choice.

    eframe is the official egui framework, which supports writing apps for Web, Linux, Mac, Windows, and Android.
