From C++ Templates to C++ Concepts - Metaprogramming: an Amazing Journey - Alex Dathskovsky

https://cppcon.org/ --- From C++ Templates to C++ Concepts - The Amazing Journey of Metaprogramming - Alex Dathskovsky - CppCon 2022 https://github.com/CppCon/CppCon2022 Metaprogramming is been with us since C++98 but as the language evolves we have more tools and the code get simpler and clearer. In this talk we will cover the history of Templates and how the usage and readability became clearer and simpler with each standard. We will develop a concept with c++11-c++17 for checking if a type is container and then we will discover how c++20 concepts make the whole thing much easier. In this talk we will cover the grounds of Template meta programming with quick walkthrough of how templates work and how template metaprogramming has evolved with every C++ standard. The talk will have present the evolution and benefits with many code examples. The larges example will be the development of a concept for Containers and how it is simplified with Concepts. --- Alex Dathskovsky Alex has over 16 years of software development experience, working on systems, low-level generic tools and high-level applications.
