CppCon 2022 is just three months away! It's hybrid again this year, with a full on-site part together with a tightly coordinated full on-line experience, just like last year. Watch for registration to open in a few days.

In the meantime, here's the latest update -- a call for volunteers, including a grant program:

Early Access to C++Now 2022 Videos

by Anastasia Kazakova

From the article:

C++Now is one of the most academic events in the C++ calendar. Up in the mountains for a week in Aspen, Colorado, attendees dive into all kinds of profound C++ topics, from new language features and proposals to libraries and tools. C++ chats start at breakfast and continue until late at night in the bar. As the conference describes itself, the C++Now participants pushe C++ to its limits and let the community know what C++ will look like tomorrow and what we can do with C++ now!

Supporting new speakers and great talks

Two weeks ago Meeting C++ organized an event centered on sharing information on how to prepare and give talks. With the goal being to level the playing field for everyone but also make it easier to start speaking. You can watch the lightning talks and the panel online.

Supporting new speakers and great talks

by Jens Weller

From the article:

This event supports the ongoing call for talks of Meeting C++ and other conferences. So for Meeting C++ 2022, submit your talk until Sunday, June 12th! As conferences and life has changed over the last 2 years, Meeting C++ wants to give everyone interested in speaking a hand on how to get started and motivated. Scott Meyers did once share in the second part of his Meeting C++ keynote in 2014 some of his thoughts on "preparing materials for the modern age" and a few years later CppCon has hosted some classes for speakers to improve their talks. But not much has come available for the general public as information on how to create and give technical talks. With this event I aimed at producing a first set of tips and topics for interested speakers to view for inspiration.

C++Now 2022 Trip Report

by Timur Doumler

From the article:

From May 1 to May 6, 2022, I attended the C++Now conference in Aspen, Colorado. This was my third time speaking at C++Now (I also attended in 2016 and 2019), and in my opinion it was the best edition of C++Now so far!
