WerWolv/ImHex ★ 54909 2468 APPLICATION

ImHex is a cross-platform hex editor and binary analysis tool designed for reverse engineers, programmers, and digital forensics. It provides a rich GUI built on Dear ImGui and GLFW, with a modular plugin architecture that allows extending functionality through dynamically loaded plugins. The core library (libimhex) implements a provider abstraction for various data sources (files, disks, process memory, GDB, SSH, UDP, etc.), an event-driven communication system, a content registry for registering views, tools, settings, and data inspectors, and a pattern language engine for declarative binary parsing. The application includes built-in plugins for hex editing, data inspection, disassembly (Capstone), diffing, YARA rule matching, hashing, decompression, visualizations (3D, plots, images), scripting (C and .NET), and a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for AI-assisted analysis. It supports undo/redo, bookmarks, patches, projects, themes, layouts, achievements, tutorials, and a command palette. The codebase is well-structured with clear separation between core library, plugins, and platform-specific code, though some components are tightly coupled to ImGui internals and the custom pattern language.
