Using C++20 in Practice: A Complete Introduction

C++20, a major release of C++ with several new features, is now becoming mainstream. This two-day workshop gets you ready to use it. It teaches all significant new features in a way that you understand their power and can start to use them in practice.

C++20 is huge. It will change the way we program more dramatically than C++11 did. As usual, not everything is self-explanatory, combining new features gives even more power, and there are hidden pitfalls. Therefore, it is key to really understand design and conceptional details of the new features of C++20 to use them right.

This two-day workshop will go through all major and important minor features of C++20 (covering both language and library), motivating them, providing compelling examples, and giving key insights and hints about how to use them in practice. Important C++23 extensions and modifications for these features are also covered.

As a member of the C++ standards committee, Nicolai will also give useful background information about purpose and design decisions.

As a result, you will understand the power of the programming paradigm C++20 intoduces to use them appropriately without too much frustration, because things do not work as self-explanatory as they look at first.
