From Templates to Concepts
Presented by Alex Dathskovsky at Core C++ 2022.
Metaprogramming has been with us since C++98, but as the language evolves we have more tools, and the code gets simpler and clearer. In this talk we will cover the history of templates and see how their use and readability became clearer and simpler with each version of the standard. To demonstrate that, we will implement a template type argument constraint using C++11-17 and then see how C++20 concepts make the implementation much cleaner and easier.
