Title
The Joys and Trials
of Writing Cross-Platform C++ Code - Let
Tools Help!
Abstract
Writing
high-quality error-free C++ code is a
challenging task, let alone when having to
juggle multiple platforms at the same time!
In this session we will be exploring the
many challenges in cross-platform C++
development and how tools can help. What
options do I have if my production
environment is different than my dev-box?
Can I be as productive when working with
remote Linux machines? How can I efficiently
build and debug CMake projects and how can I
acquire open-source libraries? Come see what
Visual Studio 2019, Visual Studio Code,
CMake, WSL, Vcpkg and more have to offer to
make your C++ development much easier in
this demo-heavy talk.
