Question 1

How do I find talks on specific topics like C++20 ranges in the CppCon 2019 repo?

Accepted Answer

Browse the repository index for titles containing 'ranges', such as 'An Overview of Standard Ranges' or 'From STL to Ranges', and download the linked PDFs. You can also use GitHub's search within the repo for keywords.

Question 2

Are there video recordings available for CppCon 2019 talks?

Accepted Answer

No, this repository only includes slides and supplementary materials. Videos are typically hosted separately on the official CppCon YouTube channel, but they are not archived here, so you'll need to look elsewhere for full talk recordings.

Question 3

CppCon 2019 vs other C++ conference materials: which is better for learning?

Accepted Answer

CppCon 2019 is excellent for in-depth, expert-led content on C++20 as it was emerging, but for broader or newer topics, consider later years like CppCon 2020 or other conferences that might cover updated standards and tools.

Question 4

How to download all CppCon 2019 presentations at once?

Accepted Answer

Clone the entire GitHub repository using 'git clone https://github.com/CppCon/CppCon2019.git' to get all files locally. Alternatively, use GitHub's download as ZIP feature, but note that this may include all directories and files.

Question 5

Can I use these slides to teach C++ to beginners?

Accepted Answer

While there are 'Back to Basics' sessions, the content is often advanced and assumes prior C++ knowledge. It's better suited for intermediate to advanced developers looking to deepen their understanding of specific topics.

Question 6

How to contribute or report issues with the materials?

Accepted Answer

Contributions are limited as this is an archive; the README mentions a 'Submitting.md' for speakers, but general updates aren't encouraged. For errors, you might open a GitHub issue, but changes are unlikely due to its canonical nature.

Question 7

What's the best way to navigate the repository for performance optimization tips?

Accepted Answer

Look for presentations like 'Everyday Efficiency: In-place Construction' or 'Floating-Point charconv Making Your Code 10x Faster', and check if they have supplementary code. Use the index to scan titles related to debugging and optimization.
