What C++ library do you wish existed but hasn’t been created yet?
utf8 normalization, stemming, case insensitive comparison. https://github.com/unicode-rs example for rust What are options for C++? 1. translate to utf16 ( https://github.com/simdutf/simdutf ) and use icu -- slow 2. boost text, https://github.com/tzlaine/text , also slow (because the author doesn't care or couldn't care), we made a lot of patches to make our library faster than lucene, but still this part is slower than icu for utf16 (icu for utf16 also very slow...)

How does this compare with https://github.com/tzlaine/text and https://github.com/soasis/text ?

SFML supports instantiating a rendering context from an existing OS-native window handle. I use said technique myself to support my screensaver rendering to the mini preview in the screensaver settings screen on macOS and Windows: https://github.com/saxbophone/hexago

C++ Show and Tell - March 2023
I wrote a cross-platform screensaver using SFML some years ago. It integrates with the screensaver frameworks for both Windows and macOS (not perfectly, mind, but it works): https://github.com/saxbophone/hexago
What are some alternatives?
