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

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

    Elements C++ GUI library

  • It's a complex domain. The closest we have at the moment is Elements which hasn't been proposed for Boost (yet?) but is by Joel de Guzman, the primary author of Boost.Spirit.

  • boostdep

    A tool to create Boost module dependency reports

  • b) If you're concerned about having to download all boost libraries in an environment where this is costly you can download only the subset of headers Boost.URL needs with boostdep. That's how boost libraries are tested in CI, by the way.

  • 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.

  • FetchBoostContent

    CMake FetchContent for Boost libraries

  • c) If you are concerned that you won't be able to do that from CMake, like with FetchContent or something, then there are scripts that can do that for you. Or you can use boostdep to bundle the subset of boost you need with your library.
