- NO AI CONTENT
AI-generated posts and comments are NOT allowed in this subreddit. DON'T use AI to "polish" or translate your words. We WILL notice. We MAY ban you without warning. - Question/Help Posts
Questions and help posts are off-topic for this subreddit. Use r/cpp_questions, r/cscareerquestions, or StackOverflow instead. - Project Posts
Personal projects written in C++ should be shared in the pinned "Show and Tell" post. Only major, established libraries/tools used by C++ programmers are eligible for top-level posts (e.g. Clang, GCC, MSVC, Boost, fmt, if you’re not sure then send modmail). NO BUILD SYSTEMS. - Other Languages
Posts about other languages (e.g. Carbon, Rust, Val, etc.) are off-topic *unless* there is substantial content directed at C++ programmers writing C++. That is, either posts about interop from the C++ side, or posts about interesting ideas *from* another language that can be applied *to* C++. - Job Posts
Employers looking for C++ developers and individuals looking for work must use the pinned "C++ Jobs" post. - Off-Topic
