The design, the traps, how to use them, and how to use something better
C++20 introduced views, lightweight collections that refer or own collections like containers or other ranges. The design had to deal with several tradeoffs. As a result, the standard views come with so many pitfalls and traps that they are really hard to use for experiences programmers and more or less unusable for ordinary programmers.
Why? How could that happen? How can we deal with what was standardized? Can we do better? Can we even implement or use other views.
This talk will answer all these questions and for sure cause heated discussions.
It is time to have them.
