    That is quite interesting. I haven't thought much about source-to-source transformation within C++.

    Do you have any articles/papers/books/etc. you can point us to for understanding this better?

    Two usecases i have in mind are;

    1) Transforming legacy C++98/C++03 codebases into "modern" C++11/14/17/20/23/26. Is this possible with current edg?

    2) Adding verification conditions based on code analysis; both runtime contract asserts and compile time proofs (possible?) so as to convert "normal" C++ code into "somewhat verified" C++ code.

    Some resources that Google brought up;

    Sorry, I don't know about an Emacs plugin. All the plugins/extensions I'm aware of are listed in the Readme.md: https://github.com/andreasfertig/cppinsights/#c-insights--vi...

    I'm happy to add an entry for Emacs once somebody develops a plugin for that editor.

    > http://eel.is/c++draft/ bookmark this, you will need it!

    Now, about books I would suggest the latest "A tour of C++" by Bjarne Stroustrup; it's ideal for experienced programmers that want to learn modern C++ rather fast.

    Other books would be Scott Meyers' Effective Series, Andrei Alexandrescu and Herb Sutter are a must, and of course Jason Turner's "C++ Weekly" series [1]; of course apart from the books, the links I have originally shared are more than enough to cover everything around C++.

    Try https://cppinsights.io. For example, go to https://cppinsights.io/s/8401262a and click the play button at the top left.

    If you're doing something more complex, you might need metashell. See http://metashell.org/manual/how_to/index.html#see-what-templ.... But you have to really, deeply, love C++ to get much out of it.
