Hi ! I searched everywhere i can to see how to fix this error but i can't find someone who explain how to install the freetype2 lib to avoid this error ! So im hoping having someone who can guide me here ! Im sorry if this sound like a dumb question, it's actually my first time using Dear ImGui 😅. Im compiling the DirectX12 Example. Im on Windows 11 using Visual Studio 2022 if this can help !
I didn't find how to include it in my project as i don't know if i already have freetype installed ^^'

There is some guidance on ways you might acquire FreeType in the imgui_freetype readme.

However do note that FreeType is not necessary to use Dear ImGui, it's an optional component.

Everything in the misc folder is optional. You probably don't want binary_to_compressed_c.cpp or imugi_single_file.h in your solution. You also probably shouldn't be adding the main.cpp from the example either.

The only things you need to add are the *.h/*.cpp files from the root of the repo and the backends/imgui_impl_* files for the backends you intend to use (that part you've done correctly.)
