Back in the day, when I was still a student, during the end of one of my internships, instead of writing my report I wrote a generator of spelling mistake for French named YololTranslator. You probably have no idea what it looks like, if you speak French, I invite you to visit the online version. Otherwise, imagine that at first it would write your instead of you're and stuff like that. (But it became way more powerfull)
At first, I wanted to install it using Vcpkg but I ended up using CPM.cmake instead. Why? Because with Vcpkg on some platform it is messing up the config and choose a version of Python used in Vcpkg instead of the one I wanted to use. It is not that hard to fix, but why bother when I can install the library in one line with CPM.cmake
Nanobind made by the creator of PyBind11, it has a similar interface, but it takes leverage of C++17 and it aims to have more efficient bindings in space and speed.
Each time I improved the spelling mistake engine, deploying it was not fun at all. One day I got tired of it and I decided to re-write the Discord bot and the backend in Python. I liked Python (and still do), there are some good libraries to create a Discord bot and a backend (FastAPI is fantastic) and also using C functions in Python is trivial. At the same time I created a docker image for the bot and the website, deployment is way easier now but that's another story I may talk about one day.
