What C++ library do you wish existed but hasn’t been created yet?
I'm not sure this is quite what you're asking for, but this library has been super helpful to me in the past : https://github.com/Neargye/magic_enum

enum_name (yet another enum to/from string conversion utility >=C++11)
What does this have to offer over magic_enum?

quill v2.7.0 released - Asynchronous Low Latency C++ Logging Library
But it's a hack, and I prefer not to use hacks in production, because of their significant limitations:
-
Enums with methods
Why reinvent the wheel? magic_enum
-
Macro to write enum and converter from and to string
I strongly recommend that you instead use magic_enum::enum_cast
Magic Enum provides that.

New to Programming and Would Like a Code Review or Tips on Readability
While I can understand the sentiment behind that it makes for a poor solution because people seeing the enum will assume it's a valid entry. A better solution is to use something like magic enum for that case.

What are some cool modern libraries you enjoy using?
magic_enum by far. It has an extreme amount of black magic, and compiler specific stuff all abstracted away behind its extremely neat user interface.

Don't Use Protobuf for Telemetry
Its a shame you can't share the code, we could really do with a modern C++ implementation. Having said that, protozero looks very interesting [1], need to find some time to look into it.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Magic Enum C++ and protozero you can also consider the following projects:
Nameof C++ - Nameof operator for modern C++, simply obtain the name of a variable, type, function, macro, and enum
Protobuf - Protocol Buffers - Google's data interchange format
cereal - A C++11 library for serialization
FlatBuffers - FlatBuffers: Memory Efficient Serialization Library
Boost.Serialization - Boost.org serialization module
pfr - std::tuple like methods for user defined types without any macro or boilerplate code
rttr - C++ Reflection Library
