    • This can be seen here[0] for more context. My question is - what is this [&] thing? And I cannot find the method named performMainAxisLayout() or performCrossAxisLayout() defined anywhere in the Layout class either. My assumption was that here, a structure/literal class is being built and the methods are on that class but the Layout class don't have them either.

    Where can I learn more about this syntax or modern C++ quick overview in general?
