modern-cpp-features - A cheatsheet of modern C++ language and library features.

Many of these descriptions and examples come from various resources (see Acknowledgements section), summarized in my own words. Also, there are now dedicated readme pages for each major C++ version.

doctest - The fastest feature-rich C++11 single-header testing framework for unit tests and TDD

•    C++

doctest is a new C++ testing framework but is by far the fastest both in compile times (by orders of magnitude) and runtime compared to other feature-rich alternatives. It brings the ability of compiled languages such as D / Rust / Nim to have tests written directly in the production code by providing a fast, transparent and flexible test runner with a clean interface. The framework is and will stay free but needs your support to sustain its development. There are lots of new features and maintenance to do. If you work for a company using doctest or have the means to do so, please consider financial support. Monthly donations via Patreon and one-offs via PayPal.

📚 C++11/14/17 On the Fly

cpp17_in_TTs - Descriptions of C++17 features, presented mostly in "Tony Tables" (hey, the name wasn't my idea)

Descriptions of C++17 features, presented mostly in "Tony Tables" (hey, the tables were my idea, but name wasn't). There are actually over 100 changes in C++17, only some of them are listed here.

cpp-taskflow - Fast C++ Parallel Programming with Task Dependency Graphs

•    C++

A fast C++ header-only library to help you quickly build parallel programs with complex task dependencies. Cpp-Taskflow lets you quickly build parallel dependency graphs using modern C++17. It supports both static and dynamic tasking, and is by far faster, more expressive, and easier for drop-in integration than existing libraries.

jucipp - A lightweight & cross-platform IDE supporting the most recent C++ standards

•    C++

This project has moved to https://gitlab.com/cppit/jucipp. Current IDEs struggle with C++ support due to the complexity of the programming language. juCI++, however, is designed especially towards libclang with speed, stability, and ease of use in mind.

sol2 - Sol3 (sol2 v3

•    C++

sol is a C++ library binding to Lua. It currently supports all Lua versions 5.1+ (LuaJIT 2.x included). sol aims to be easy to use and easy to add to a project. The library is header-only for easy integration with projects. Find it here. A run-through kind of tutorial is here! The API documentation goes over most cases (particularly, the "api/usertype" and "api/table_proxy" and "api/function" sections) that should still get you off your feet and going, and there's an examples directory here as well.

compile-time-regular-expressions - A Compile time PCRE (almost) compatible regular expression matcher

•    C++

Fast compile-time regular expression with support for matching/searching/capturing in compile-time or runtime. You can use single header version from directory single-header. This header can be regenerated with make single-header.

PEGTL - Parsing Expression Grammar Template Library

•    C++

The Parsing Expression Grammar Template Library (PEGTL) is a zero-dependency C++ header-only parser combinator library for creating parsers according to a Parsing Expression Grammar (PEG). Grammars are written as regular C++ code, created with template programming (not template meta programming), i.e. nested template instantiations that naturally correspond to the inductive definition of PEGs (and other parser-combinator approaches).

xray-16 - Improved version of the X-Ray engine, used in world famous S

•    C++

OpenXRay is an improved version of the X-Ray engine, used in world famous S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game series by GSC Game World. Changelist and more is available in wiki.

boden - Purely native C++ cross-platform framework for Android and iOS development

•    C++

Note: This is a beta release. The Boden API is not yet fully complete and stable. On a Mac: macOS 10.14+, Xcode 10.1+, Python 3.4+, CMake 3.10.2+.

inspector - A drop-anywhere C++ REPL

•    C++

Allows to inject a fully-functional C++17 REPL into running, compiled programs that can access your program state and offers features like code-completion and syntax highlighting. Note that for some linux distributions the cling project also provide pre-build binaries.

rang - A Minimal, Header only Modern c++ library for terminal goodies 💄✨

•    C++

rang only depends on C++ standard library, unistd.h system header on unix and windows.h & io.h system headers on windows based systems. In other words, you don't need any 3rd party dependencies. rang is a single header-only library. Put rang.hpp in the include folder directly into the project source tree or somewhere reachable from your project.

Vc - SIMD Vector Classes for C++

•    C++

Recent generations of CPUs, and GPUs in particular, require data-parallel codes for full efficiency. Data parallelism requires that the same sequence of operations is applied to different input data. CPUs and GPUs can thus reduce the necessary hardware for instruction decoding and scheduling in favor of more arithmetic and logic units, which execute the same instructions synchronously. On CPU architectures this is implemented via SIMD registers and instructions. A single SIMD register can store N values and a single SIMD instruction can execute N operations on those values. On GPU architectures N threads run in perfect sync, fed by a single instruction decoder/scheduler. Each thread has local memory and a given index to calculate the offsets in memory for loads and stores. Current C++ compilers can do automatic transformation of scalar codes to SIMD instructions (auto-vectorization). However, the compiler must reconstruct an intrinsic property of the algorithm that was lost when the developer wrote a purely scalar implementation in C++. Consequently, C++ compilers cannot vectorize any given code to its most efficient data-parallel variant. Especially larger data-parallel loops, spanning over multiple functions or even translation units, will often not be transformed into efficient SIMD code.

magic_enum - Static reflection for enums (to string, from string, iteration) for modern C++, work with any enum type without any macro or boilerplate code

•    C++

Header-only C++17 library provides static reflection for enums, work with any enum type without any macro or boilerplate code.

nameof - Nameof operator for modern C++, simply obtain the name of a variable, type, function, macro, and enum

•    C++

Header-only C++17 library provides nameof macros and functions to simply obtain the name of a variable, type, function, macro, and enum. Nameof returns std::string_view. If argument does not have name, returns empty string.

magic_get - std::tuple like methods for user defined types without any macro or boilerplate code

•    C++

This C++14 library is meant for accessing structure elements by index and providing other std::tuple like methods for user defined types without any macro or boilerplate code. Distributed under the Boost Software License, Version 1.0.

pprint - Pretty Printer for Modern C++

•    C++

Simply include pprint.hpp and you're good to go. pprint supports a variety of STL sequence containers including std::vector, std::list, std::deque, and std::array.

dyno - Runtime polymorphism done right

•    C++

At this point, this library is experimental and it is a pure curiosity. No stability of interface or quality of implementation is guaranteed. Use at your own risks. Dyno solves the problem of runtime polymorphism better than vanilla C++ does. It provides a way to define interfaces that can be fulfilled non-intrusively, and it provides a fully customizable way of storing polymorphic objects and dispaching to virtual methods. It does not require inheritance, heap allocation or leaving the comfortable world of value semantics, and it can do so while outperforming vanilla C++.

entt - Gaming meets modern C++ - a fast and reliable entity-component system (ECS) and much more

•    C++

Consider it a work in progress. The whole API is also fully documented in-code for those who are brave enough to read it. Currently, EnTT is tested on Linux, Microsoft Windows and OS X. It has proven to work also on both Android and iOS. Most likely it will not be problematic on other systems as well, but has not been sufficiently tested so far.
