C++ Patterns is a repository of code patterns illustrating a modern and idiomatic approach to writing C++. The aim is to provide beginner to intermediate C++ developers a reference for solving common problems in C++. As the C++ language and library evolve, which they have been doing rapidly since the release of C++11, these patterns will be updated to match the current state-of-the-art in idiomatic C++ development.
This repository contains the source for the web front-end, providing a simple web interface for browsing the patterns. It is a static website built with Jekyll and uses custom Jekyll plugins to generate the pattern pages from their source.
If you wish to contribute to the front-end itself, please fork this repository on GitHub. If you'd like to provide some patterns or edit existing patterns, please take a look at the patterns repository.
Pattern pages are generated from a collection of .cpp files. These
files are kept in a separate repository, namely
sftrabbit/CppPatterns-Patterns.
To build this website, you will need to clone this repository into
the _samples subdirectory:
$ git clone https://github.com/sftrabbit/CppPatterns-Patterns.git _samples
After cloning the pattern sources into _samples, the site can be
built with:
$ jekyll build
The site will be built to the _site directory.
