CppCon 2018: Robert Schumacher “Don't package your libraries, write packagable libraries!”

http://CppCon.org — Presentation Slides, PDFs, Source Code and other presenter materials are available at: https://github.com/CppCon/CppCon2018 — Amid an avalanche of packaging solutions, who's side should you take? Trick question; you can support all of them! Discover the fundamental principles that make your library easy for _others_ to package so you don't have to! As a bonus, your builds will be faster, simpler, and more maintainable. This talk covers the lessons learned from packaging over 700 libraries in vcpkg, from the simplest single-header to the massive framework of Qt. We'll dissect the open source package maintainer's perspective and walk through the top library mistakes, supported by real-world examples from the vcpkg catalog. — Robert Schumacher Developer, Microsoft — Videos Filmed & Edited by Bash Films: http://www.BashFilms.com
