An std::variant alternative for C++11
I know that there is boost::variant but adding the whole boot dependency for this use case seem too much. I have seen the following implementation and similar ones

How to implicitly convert between pointers and integral types
You could build your own versions if thats a concern. Or use one of the free pre-C++17 implementations (like I do in my C++11 codebase). https://github.com/mpark/variant

Using std::variant and std::visit to transform-reduce a (rose) tree
mpark::variant and mpark::visit are faster than the gcc STL implementation.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing nonstd-lite and variant you can also consider the following projects:
optional - C++11/14/17 std::optional with functional-style extensions and reference support
recursive-variant - Recursive Variant: A simple library for Recursive Variant Types
abseil-cpp - Abseil Common Libraries (C++)
chessCAMO - chessCAMO is a newly proposed chess engine with a built-in variant that stands for Calculations Always Make Opportunities and was inspired by the very popular chess variant Crazyhouse.
