Ticket Maps
by Anthony Williams
From the article:
It has been an increasingly common scenario that I’ve encountered where you have some ID that’s monotonically increasing, such as a subscription or connection index, or user ID, and you need your C++ program to hold some data that’s associated with that ID value. The program can then pass round the ID, and use that ID to access the associated data at a later point…

How to use C++ for Cross-Platform Development
by Gusts Kaksis
From the article:
My current line of work revolves around an app that runs on four platforms – Android, iOS, macOS and Windows. It’s core code base is written in C++ and it uses Objective-C (on iOS and macOS) and Java (on Android) to access native APIs. I wanted to share some tips and tricks that I’ve accumulated over time on how to make the ends meet.
This article will mainly concentrate on languages and so called backend part of the application, if you are also interested in cross-platform UI development, then that is a whole another story and I won’t be covering it here. I can only mention some good frameworks to start with, like Qt, React Native, Flutter to name a few (the latter two being further away from C++, but they have C++ bindings)…
