  • Some Thoughts on Documentation
    Link #JSON
    The documentation pipeline for Boost.JSON was migrated from Doxygen‑generated Quickbook to AsciiDoc using a Python conversion tool and a multipage Asciidoctor plugin, restructuring overload comments and planning replacement of Doxygen with Mr.Docs.
  • Upcoming C++26
    Link #IO
    The feature set for the upcoming C++26 standard has been frozen, introducing static reflection, contracts, and sender/receiver asynchronous execution among other changes. Static reflection permits compile‑time introspection of types, allowing operations such as automatic conversion of enumeration values to strings and facilitating generation of language bindings. Contracts are provided through [[pre:]], [[post:]] and contract_assert annotations, re‑introducing design‑by‑contract capabilities that were omitted from earlier drafts. The execution framework supplies generic sender and receiver concepts together with lightweight schedulers for managing asynchronous work. Parallel algorithms have been added to the Ranges library, and async scopes enable RAII‑style resource management in concurrent code.
  • Learn C++
    Link #Assign
    It is a beginner‑level, self‑paced Codecademy course introducing the C++ programming language and its applications in software, games, databases, and scientific computing. The curriculum is comprised of 13 lessons, 14 hands‑on projects, and eight quizzes, requiring roughly eleven hours to complete and covering core programming concepts, pointers, memory management, and project development. Practical assignments are provided, such as creating ASCII block letters, solving quadratic equations, and converting currencies. Completion yields a certificate that may be displayed on professional profiles. Learner feedback highlights clear explanations, interactive exercises, and a well‑organized interface. Frequently asked questions supply background on C++’s evolution and its performance advantages.
