C++ is everywhere, but noone really talks about it. What are people's thoughts?

• CppCoreGuidelines

  306 41,497 7.6 Python

  The C++ Core Guidelines are a set of tried-and-true guidelines, rules, and best practices about coding in C++

  

Another phenomenal resource is the ISO C++ core guidelines which is essentially a giant list of best practices of newer c++ features. These guidelines were a collaborative effort started by Bjarne Stroustrup who know a bit about c++. There is an entire section about resource management if you're interested in learning more about the newer facilities c++ offers in that regard to avoid the footguns, but there is a ton of other great information in there as well.

Are you saying that the QNX kernel is not used on embedded devices? It doesn't use C++. (according to GitHub it is 1.8% C++ but I'm assuming that's vendored or demo stuff)
