Example showing how to wrap the Rerun Viewer in your own GUI.

You create your own eframe app and write your own GUI using egui.

The example is really basic, but should be something you can build upon.

The example starts an SDK server which the Python or Rust logging SDK can connect to.

Usage

Start it with cargo run -p extend_viewer_ui.

Then put some data into it with: cargo run -p minimal_options -- --connect
