Applying the Lessons of std - ranges to Unicode in the C++ Standard Library

Explore a comprehensive conference talk on applying std::ranges principles to Unicode implementation in the C++ Standard Library. Delve into the challenges of standardizing Unicode in C++, comparing it with ICU, and discover innovative approaches to designing a future standard Unicode API. Learn about Unicode terminology, normalization, iterator interfaces, transcoding views, and performance considerations. Examine specific algorithms, normalization forms, and vocabulary types for text segmentation and grapheme handling. Gain insights into the work of SG16 and the potential future of Unicode support in C++.
