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.

Job related results from the Meeting C++ community survey

by Jens Weller

From the article:

I started a blog series about the results for 2020 of the Meeting C++ Community survey. As next week is the second online C++ Job fair, I thought I take a look at the job related questions.

This time all graphs show the result of 2020 on the left and the current result for 2021 on the left. So you can compare and see a few first changes to 2020. Mostly the results are similar though, most questions have so far around ~200 answeres in 2021. If this trend continues, 2021 is going to collect again around 1-1.5k answers per Question it seems.
