Sourceful VS CppCoreGuidelines

This might be a good place to start.

www.hackingwithswift.com has good free resources and also some paid. Good place to start ;)

Sometimes the documentation can feel incomplete… though sometimes there are some really helpful tutorials. Once place I’ve found good info is from WWDC. Another is from Paul Hudson on https://www.hackingwithswift.com

Check out these resources.

For example, Paul Hudson's Hacking with Swift has 100 days of Swift and 100 days of SwiftUI. The first 15 days are dedicated to basics of programming like learning about variables, dictionary, etc. maybe you can skip through those but I would still look into topics like extensions, protocols, etc.

iOS programming is really straightforward, and with the advent of Swift and SwiftUI, it is really accessible. I kicked around an idea last year, and managed to get quite a decent prototype together very quickly. It doesn't have the best documentation for the language and software development kits, but there are loads of resources on the internet (Hacking with Swift is a good place to start).

If you aren't aware of the c++ core guidelines[1] - it should be on your radar.

Also, it might not be a popular opinion, but I think Bjarne's books are just fine.

A Tour of C++ (3rd edition) [2]

Principles and Practice Using C++ (3rd Edition) was just published in april 2023 [3]

You need to talk to Bjarne and Herb...

In addition to the other comments -

TypeScript deliberately takes a "good enough" approach to improving JavaScript, instead of designing an ideal but incompatible approach. For example, its handling of [function parameter bivariance](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/type-compatibil...) is unsound but works much better with the existing JavaScript ecosystem. By contrast, a more academic functional programming language would guarantee a sound type system but would be a huge shift from JavaScript.

By analogy, Herb Sutter is arguing that something like the [C++ Core Guidelines](https://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines), with tooling help in this new Cpp2 syntax, can bring real improvements to safety. Something like Rust's borrow checker would bring much stricter guarantees, backed by academic research and careful design, but would be incompatible and a huge adjustment.

Take a look at Effective Modern c++ by Scott Meyers and the ISO c++ core guidelines. These resources are great for learning how to write better, more modern C++. I don't think it would be hard to grasp if you're already familiar with the language, just make sure to actually write some code which makes use of this stuff, otherwise it's easy to forget.

Look to the C++ Core Guidelines. It's not perfect, it has some flaws, including some sabotaging advice apparently adopted for political reasons. But at least it has some C++ authorities (Bjarne and Herb) as authors.
