Meeting C++ 2024: the last hybrid C++ conference?

Like last year sharing my thoughts on that Meeting C++ 2024 is the only hybrid C++ conference.

Meeting C++ 2024: the last hybrid C++ conference?

by Jens Weller

From the article:

While I'm happy that Meeting C++ 2024 is not the last online conference, I do have once again to wonder if its the last hybrid one.

Once again I'd like to document my thoughts on running a hybrid conference, and also ask the C++ community for the support if you value such an offer being available world wide. In the end the numbers of this years conference will once again decide if I think that continueing is worth it.

Its easier to run a conference without a live stream...

30 days until Meeting C++ 2024!

Meeting C++ 2024 is just 30 days away! Come to Berlin and meet with the C++ Community and the C++ committee for 3 days!

Learn Modern C++ at Meeting C++ 2024!

A post highlighting some of the talks that let you learn about Modern C++ at Meeting C++ 2024

Learn Modern C++ at Meeting C++ 2024

by Jens Weller

From the article:

I think this is what should you get excited the most, C++20 is making its way through the compiler implementations and you actually can apply this to your own code base. The top voted talk this year reflects this, in C++ Modules - getting started today Andreas Weis will show you how Modules are now available with the big 3 compilers.

Highlighting the student and support tickets for Meeting C++ 2024

by Jens Weller

From the article:

Like every year, I'd like to point towards the programs for those that can't afford to pay for a ticket for Meeting C++ 2024.

And let me start with thanking those that enable these programs through their ticket buying: the attendees and sponsors of Meeting C++ 2024! With the schedule published, I'd like to highlight the student and support tickets for Meeting C++ 2024. For a few years now Meeting C++ has hosted programs to give students, underrepresented folks and those who can't afford a ticket access to the conference.

This year for the first time you can choose to register either for onsite or online for these programs. A limited amount of tickets for Berlin will be available, depending on the ticket sale in October. So incase you registered for onsite but are not chosen for a ticket, then you'll have a chance to an online ticket...

Adding trainings to Meeting C++ 2024

Meeting C++ now offers 4 trainings that align with Meeting C++ 2024, and will be held in the last week of November.

Adding C++ trainings to Meeting Cpp 2024

by Jens Weller

From the article:

Trainings listing

    C++ for C Developers - Migrating from C to C++ - a two day training by Slobodan Dmitrovic starting November 25th
    Program with GUTs - a half day training by Kevlin Henney on November 25th
    Generic programming in C++ with templates and auto - full day training by Nicolai Josuttis on November 28th
    Concepts, Ranges, and Views - The New Way of Programming in C++ - full day training by Nicolai Josuttis on November 29th

These 4 trainings focus on various important current aspects of C++. From the migration to C++ from C, which is also a great course if you migrate to Modern C++ from "C with classes" like code. Or a refresher on unit testing by Kevlin Henney himself. Nicolai Josuttis gives a two day training, which is also available as single days: on the first day generic programming with templates and auto is bringing you a referesher, while focusing on C++20 Concepts, Ranges and Views on the next day. I've made the decision that prices for trainings are now fixed, half/full day trainings are 499 € and two day trainings are 999 €, this already includes taxes and all fees from the ticketshop. Attending the trainings will let you learn great new ways to think about your code and it gives support Meeting C++!
