Check out my new C++ research tools!

Disclaimer: I used AI exclusively for this. I wanted to see how far I could push the tools.

1) LaTeX to markdown: github.com/lefticus/cpp...
2) Diff tool of per-stable-name of the markdown

cppevo.dev/diffs/cpp11-... to see how has evolved!

If your team still has budget left this year and wants to level up their Modern C++ skills — this might be the perfect fit.

From C++11 to C++23, I offer in-house training tailored to your team’s experience.

Send me a message if you’d like to grab the last slot for this year.

#training #workshop
I still have one training spot open for 2025
