  • doctest

    The fastest feature-rich C++11/14/17/20/23 single-header testing framework

    I use doctest for unit testing.

  • MkDocs

    Project documentation with Markdown.

    Although my most recent projects are kinda special as I use entangled and Tup together and write most of my C++ in a literate programming style. I wrap the commands in a Makefile for convenience and have a setup where I run make watch and it opens a tmux session which has various splits showing entangled auto running, Tup auto building, mkdocs automatically building the documentation and unit tests automatically running. So I basically edit either the code or the markdown and save and all of these things immediately build and run. I have a separate male command (make build target=debug) to build the binary manually (since the auto building builds only the unit tests).

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
