  • C++ Format

    A modern formatting library

    • Compile times are actually comparable to printf's + header included: https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt#compile-time-and-code-bloat. With modules the latter which is a fixed per-TU cost will go away and even now is likely included transitively anyway.

  • tinyformat

    Minimal, type safe printf replacement library for C++

    • Haven't been able to make it work with MSVC 2012 (the earliest Windows-side compiler I need to support). I myself use tinyformat instead.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
