• univalue

  5 29 0.0 C++

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

nlohmann's json is ergonomic but is slow. I use this lib when I need speed.

• Magic Enum C++

  44 4,390 8.4 C++

  Static reflection for enums (to string, from string, iteration) for modern C++, work with any enum type without any macro or boilerplate code

magic_enum by far. It has an extreme amount of black magic, and compiler specific stuff all abstracted away behind its extremely neat user interface.

Operating systems: - linux emscripten - linux gcc - linux clang - windows msvc - mac clang

Just discovered FTXUI - a library for creating functional user interfaces on terminal. It supports clickable stuff and even plots. https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI Jason Turner also has a starting repository with all the boilerplate ready: https://github.com/cpp-best-practices/ftxui_template

• cmake_template

I'm interested in something equivalent to tx_byte_pool but for non-embedded usage where I want a custom allocator for defined pools. Do you know if mimalloc can do this? I see it has custom heaps, but I didn't see any functions to create one from raw memory.
