Getting started with Boost in 2022

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/cpp

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • llfio

    P1031 low level file i/o and filesystem library for the C++ standard

  • I'm a fan of Interprocess, used it for over a decade. But for mmapping I've switched to LLFIO and recommend it highly. (Plugging so Niall doesn't have to.)

  • univalue

    An easy-to-use and competitively fast JSON parsing library for C++17, forked from Bitcoin Cash Node's own UniValue library.

  • Not a huge fan of it. But it does the job. I prefer either the lib I maintain: UniValue or the ubiquitous nlohmann.

  • 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.

  • json_test_data

    Test data for nlohmann/json

  • Not a huge fan of it. But it does the job. I prefer either the lib I maintain: UniValue or the ubiquitous nlohmann.

  • boost-ci

    Continuous Integration Toolkit for boostorg code repositories

  • For instance, this is including a single directory: https://github.com/boostorg/boost-ci/blob/master/test/cmake_test/CMakeLists.txt

  • ut

    C++20 μ(micro)/Unit Testing Framework

  • https://github.com/boost-ext/ut from Kris Jusiak is worth checking

  • 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.
