Kate Gregory selects ten essential rules from the C++ Core Guidelines and explains how they help write safer, cleaner, and more modern C++.
CppCon.org — Presentation Slides, PDFs, Source Code and other presenter materials are available at: github.com/CppCon/CppCon2017 — The C++ Core Guidelines were announced at CppCon 2015, yet some developers have still never heard of them. It's time to see what they have to offer for you, no matter how much C++ experience you have. You don't need to read and learn the whole thing: in this talk I am pulling out some highlights of the Guidelines to show you why you should be using these selected guidelines. For each one I'll show some examples, and discuss the benefit of adopting them for new code or going back into old code to make a change. Beginners who find the sheer size of the language and library daunting should be able to rely on the Guidelines to help make sane choices when there are many ways to do things. Experienced C++ developers may need to leave some of their habits behind. Developers along this spectrum could benefit from seeing what the Guidelines have to offer, yet the guidelines themselves are just too big to absorb all at once. My examples will be chosen to be beginner-friendly and the focus will be on what's in it for you: faster code, less bugs, and other tangible benefits. — Kate Gregory: Gregory Consulting, Partner Kate Gregory has been using C++ since before Microsoft had a C++ compiler.

…longer needed on C++17 thanks to std::byte as yet another example. The GSL asserts are there until code contracts0 get into the standard. The magical types like gsl::owner allow clang-tidy and VC++ checkers to apply a Rust-like memory tracking usage. Kate Gregory did a presentation at CppCon 2017.
