How does an experienced programmer go about learning new languages such as C++.
Oh, one project that I learned a lot of modern C++ from was, https://github.com/boostorg/spirit, I wanted to build a faster org-mode parser. I built at best a working prototype, but ended up learning a lot about how templates. It is also a header only library. If you want to avoid some administrative work, linking, choosing a build system, .... I figured it might be helpful.

Boost v1.78.0
Sadly, this still includes the to me [rather critical bug in Boost Spirit](https://github.com/boostorg/spirit/issues/688). I was hoping that a patch would come through before release.

Boost v1.78.0
Before the Boost release archives are made, all the header files from the individual libraries (e.g. libs/assert/include/boost) are copied to a top-level boost/ directory, and then deleted. So in a Boost release archive, all library headers are in the same place, and it's no longer possible to know which header came from what library.
What are some alternatives?
