    Unfortunately, our codebase (at work) isn't on a public github account. But I can really recommend throwtheswitch.org.

    throwtheswitch.org tools are pretty interesting. They focus on C, but support C++ as well.
  • “Static Linking Considered Harmful” Considered Harmful
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 3 Oct 2021
    This is very situational, but I have recently been part of a project that does a lot of C server-side development and we have found that static linking our non-glibc dependencies has really improved our developer experience. Using ceedling's dependency plugin[1] and producing a single "statically" linked library has made our C development much closer to using a language with a more modern package manager. Don't get me wrong, if I was trying to distribute binaries to machines I didn't control I'd definitely be willing to invest in the Linux packaging "fun", but for a server-side application it's been a good choice for our team overall.
