The State of Package Management in C++ – Mathieu Ropert [ACCU 2019]
#packages #c++ #ACCUConf
Package management was considered one of the hottest and crucial topics in the last 2 years. In 2017, Bjarne Stroustrup himself said this was a something we needed to solve to keep students interested in C++.
Where do we stand today, in 2019? Join me for a tour of the topic, including:
A look at which tools we currently have, with a focus on Conan and VCPKG
What challenges we still have to overcome
How you can make your software easier to package and reuse
