Goodbye Metaprogramming, and Hello Functional

Explore the evolution of C++ metaprogramming in this CppNow conference talk. Discover how modern C++ features like constexpr, type deduction, and functional idioms are making traditional metaprogramming techniques obsolete. Learn how to leverage the Fit library's functional constructs to simplify metaprogramming in C++. Gain insights into why functional programming concepts are becoming essential tools for C++ developers. Examine practical examples and code demonstrations that illustrate the shift from complex template metaprogramming to more readable and maintainable functional approaches. Understand the benefits of this paradigm shift and how it can improve code clarity and reduce complexity in C++ projects.
