Top 17 C++ Unicode Projects

  • C++ Format

    A modern formatting library

    • Project mention: C++ left arrow operator (2016) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-24

    Continuation passing monads form the basis of a perfectly valid and usable software architecture and programming pattern.

    In the case of ostream and operator<<, this pattern reduces the number of intermediate objects that would otherwise be constructed.

    If you object to iostream on religious or stylistic grounds, there's always fmt which is more like Go or Python string interpolation.[0]

  • ugrep

    NEW ugrep 5.1: an ultra fast, user-friendly, compatible grep. Ugrep combines the best features of other grep, adds new features, and searches fast. Includes a TUI and adds Google-like search, fuzzy search, hexdumps, searches nested archives (zip, 7z, tar, pax, cpio), compressed files (gz, Z, bz2, lzma, xz, lz4, zstd, brotli), pdfs, docs, and more

    • Project mention: Neovide – a simple, no-nonsense, cross-platform GUI for Neovim | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-31

    Another problem is that the cursor moves while the screen is buffer is being rendered. The location is only really known once the cursor settles in the same place for some time, which is unacceptable in terms of latency.

    The synchronized output extension could be used to do this, though. https://github.com/contour-terminal/contour/blob/master/docs...

  • Diagon

    Interactive ASCII art diagram generators. :star2:

    • Project mention: Architecture diagrams enable better conversations | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-22

    A few more ASCII-based tool that you could add into your workflow are https://arthursonzogni.com/Diagon/#Sequence which can be used to generate the ASCII that you input into something like Typogram (https://google.github.io/typograms/).

    For example, input:

      Renderer -> Browser: BeginNavigation()

  • tomlplusplus

    Header-only TOML config file parser and serializer for C++17.

  • InfluxDB

    • Project mention: The Absolute Minimum Every Software Developer Must Know About Unicode in 2023 | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-02

    It sounds like a generic length function in Unicode in 2023 is no longer a good idea. These articles complaining about the variety of lengths in Unicode are annoying at this point. Pretty much all of them can be summed up as, "Well, it depends." And, that isn't wrong. But nerds love to argue until they are blue in the face about the One Correct Answer. Sheesh.

    This is the most interesting comparison article I have seen in years about Unicode processing in C++: https://thephd.dev/the-c-c++-rust-string-text-encoding-api-l...

    The author is also the lead on an open source C++ Unicode library called ztd.txt: https://github.com/soasis/text
