Agenda

18:30 Pre-session networking and getting that good seat at the front

19:00 Phil Nash: Kick Off

Brief intro and JetBrains raffle

19:10 Vittorio Romeo: "Introduction to C++ origami"

Fold expressions, introduced in C++17, allow us to easily generate code that combines variadic template arguments together or performs an action on them.
After a brief overview of the feature's syntax, this short talk shows some cool and useful utilities that can be implemented using fold expressions.
The audience should be familiar with variadic templates - knowledge of C++17 features is not required.

20:00 break

20:10 Andrew Gresyk : "Practical HFSM"

An update on the progress made on the Hierarchical Finite State Machine library (https://github.com/andrew-gresyk/HFSM) since my April 2017 talk, and a live demo showcasing its usage in production-like code
