Google's open source Abseil library, powering TensorFlow and other libraries, seems like it should belong in this list. It primarily adds C++14/17 features to C++11 with a +5 year support plan, and some other useful bits.

Hello everyone,

I am a long time C++ user. First, congratulations for the huge collection of high quality links you posted here.

I would like to give some feedback, please, let me know what you think. I see the section for best practices a bit slanted for 2 reasons:

1. it lists Catch as the unit test framework of choice. Many other high quality frameworks exist: doctest, boost.test and google test come to mind. Is there any reason to list this above the other alternatives? Boost.test has integration with Boost.Turtle mock framework and google mock includes google test. They seem to be more complete solutions to me.
2. CMake. I have been using it for a long time and I think right now it is almost a de facto standard, but I would like to mention the build system I switched to, after having tried both and many others: meson build system. This build system is something I think that could be at least listed, it is working remarkably well for me, including windows, mac, linux and cross compilation, though the project generator for XCode is still a bit immature and does not have as much adoption, but it is highly usable. I have literally tried: waf, scons, autotools, cmake, tup and many others, you can see one of my replies in stackoverflow here, since I spent lots of times using all systems in real projects. Do not take this link as an advertisement, I just want to show you that I researched and what I found out: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5837764/autotools-vs-cmake/24953691#24953691

I honestly think that Meson deserves a preferent place together with cmake among all the build systems.

P.S.: I am not in any way affiliated to Meson project, but I just think that it should be listed as high quality, and usable software at this point.

Thanks for sharing many sources about c++. I am sad to discovered it now.

I will make a suggestion.
Maybe should put QML and Qt frameworks sources. From this repository users who wants to learn that frameworks can reach or find new sources quickly.

Let me start.

Thanks in advance.

I would add the following books:

A Tour of C++ (2nd ed) - The C++ Programming Language is exhaustive but unfortunately getting old. The original "Tour" was an excerpt fromTCPL but the second edition has C++17 and 20 additions. Its a nice supplement to the big beast.
Professional CMake - This is an excellent, modern book on how to use CMake.

Hi !!,
There is a typo error in the Websites section
Instead of C++ Samples ,it must be C++ Patterns.

https://github.com/Corvusoft/restbed

Restbed is a library to implement REST API in C++

how come that you don't mention openframeworks?
; )

Should vcpkg be listed as a cross-platform open-source package manager?

The domain is expired, the site is down. Consider removing the link

execq - Smart queue that executes tasks in threadpool-like manner (serial / concurrent) in C++11.

Specifically, simdjson at this time doesn't support serialization (writing data out) at all. Maybe the category should be "Parsing & Serialization" or "Data Interchange" instead?

Hi, I'm the author of tweeny, a tween library targeted at C++ game developers. I was wondering if it conforms to the list of C++ libraries and if so, can you include it?

Thanks!
