I think the point here is that depending on Boost (Or similar libraries) should not be a problem. Consider python's pip. Bootstrapping a python codebase is simple, just run pip ins…

The key here is to be objective, not falling on a flame thread. C++ templates are ugly, I'm agree, but they are useful and heavily used. Lets make them simple to use with some abst…

Haha, that reminds me to a guy who implemented a PROLOG-like language with templates: https://github.com/abudnik/tcalc

"Programming in XML notation is starting to look good, suddenly" I hate the typename ::type pattern. tml::eval helps a lot, but still involves a lot of nested template "calls". To …

Exactly. if is a C++ keyword. I selected tml::conditional following the Standard std::conditional. The boost::mpl library uses mpl::if_, for example.

As I said in the post, common day to day C++ has (usually) nothing to do with metaprogramming. But huge generic libraries, like most of the STL implementations, rely heavily on tem…

+1 to alexandrescu's "Modern C++" showing the expressive power of C++. Also, imho, one o the key points of the book is how Alexandrescu criticises the OO patterns of the so horribl…

I'm agree with you and aware about the fact that the Fibonacci metafunction is not a good example of real metaprogramming (Computing Fibonacci series using tmp has no much sense). …

There could be a bug on the code snippets included inside the post, sorry. Check the code running at compiler explorer, it's working and you can see clearly the result string liter…

The term "Modern C++" refers to the fact that most of the C++ industry still depends on or develops C++98/03 code. Is "Modern" compared to that, and the term is used to refer to st…
