Petter Holmberg: Programming with Concepts

2023 is the year of a new C++ ISO standard, with many new features to learn about as we are still struggling to get a grasp of previous ones. Concepts was one of the major additions to C++20 and is starting to see real-world usage outside of the standard library. But how do you get started using concepts in your own code?

This talk is an attempt at answering this question, based on my personal experience with concepts over the last few years. It is not a deep dive into syntax and technical details but focuses more on how to think about concepts and how they interact with your code.
