Magic Enum C++ VS wise_enum

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

Also, a shoutout to Magic Enum: https://github.com/Neargye/magic_enum

What does this have to offer over magic_enum?

But it's a hack, and I prefer not to use hacks in production, because of their significant limitations:

Why reinvent the wheel? magic_enum

I strongly recommend that you instead use magic_enum::enum_cast

Magic Enum provides that.

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.

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.

I can't keep up! First we have better enum, then some guy at a conference says we have to use wise enum instead, and now you speak of magic enum!

There are already several working, well-known and used hacks mechanisms available to reflect on enums. For example, magic enum, wise enum, Boost.Describe, and so on.
