►Lesson Description: In this lesson we take a look at the Cpp2 an experimental frontend for a 10x safer and 10x simpler C++ programming language. This is an interesting look in our series of a language that compiles to a known and active programming language, similar to the way that TypeScript compiles down to JavaScript. Cppfront is the tool, and it uses a 'Cpp2' syntax that compiles or otherwise 'transpiles' down to Cpp1 (Normal C++20 or later) syntax. This should provide an interesting way to write better (meaning safer and simpler) C++ code by having the write defaults enforced, as well as new or otherwise easier ways to access programming language features (e.g. pattern matching, reflection, type safety) within C++. I found this easy to setup, and also something that got me excited about C++ programming. As always, let me know what resources/tools I missed that others should know about in the comments below!
