Finally, C++ has enough good tools to improve code quality 👍
It took us some years to get here...

If your're haunted by the Ghost of C++ Standard Past in your codebase, don't procrastinate to modernize your code 😉

[Clang Power Tools](www.clangpowertools.com)

• clang-tidy
• modernize
• clangpowertools
• VisualStudio

I referenced 2 talks in the slides:

• one is another lightning talk from CppCon 2017 by Walter Brown (link was already posted in this thread)

• the other one is by Alexander Stepanov:

Too bad :(

You might be right about the format: it took Herb almost an hour to convincingly explain this point, in his excellent CppCon 2016 talk :)

My talk was meant to be more of a tapas for entry-level C++ :D

As for shared_ptrs (note that I specifically said shared_ptr, not smart-pointers, in general),

I think Herb Sutter explains it best (it in detail), in his CppCon 2016 talk:

The talk was meant as a teaser. The format for a Lightning Talk at CppCon is 5 minutes (max).

This is my favorite Lightning Talk at this year's CppCon.
