Course Overview
Write clean, fast, concurrent code with key features of C++ 14,17, and now 20.
C++ is a multi-paradigm language that lets you solve a problem in different ways, and this course will teach you the best practices.
Furthermore, C++ has been re-invented again. C++2a is the largest extension to the language since C++11, and it almost feels like a new language. Developers who master the new features will be able to write cleaner, faster and concurrent code. In this course, you will learn about the best practices of C++ programming, including project structure, designing interfaces and classes, C++ Core Guidelines, and the most recent language standard. The new features are numerous and cover almost every area of the language: modules let us organize our programs better; concepts help us create cleaner APIs; ranges forever change how we look at containers; concurrency features, such as coroutines, bring parallel and concurrent programming to a whole new level.
You will get plenty of practical experience with short, real-world code examples. By the end of this course, you will be ready to create better software using C++.

As an experienced developer, I appreciated the level of this course; I thought it were one among many of the courses you may find there outside, but I found out I was wrong. IMHO, the author writes very good code, explaining the contents and the objectives in the meanwhile, with a great knowledge of the topic. Only flaw? Maybe the source code written during the course would have been a good add-on for the learning process :)

Very good topic and code project! But since many topics are very advanced and complicated, I really expect a better explanation which means a more detailed introduction to the concepts or the problem to be solved, then explanation of the concept starting with some simple examples.
