This initiative was born out of a vision I’ve long held: to build a bridge between theoretical learning and hands-on application in C++. As we traverse through this course, we will not only delve into the depths of modern C++ but also explore how to refactor legacy C++98 code into more efficient, readable, and safer modern C++ code.

This isn’t just about learning new features. It’s about empowering you, fellow developers, to understand the intricacies of features like auto-type deduction, move semantics, lambda expressions, and range-based loops and apply them to real-world tasks. The course has hands-on coding exercises and interactive quizzes designed to reinforce your learning and showcase how these features can enhance your code.

I chose to focus on refactoring because of my firsthand experience in dealing with ‘technical debt.’ As systems evolve, once efficient code often becomes outdated, hard to read, or inefficient due to changes in the broader system, dependencies, or simply the evolution of programming techniques. Refactoring – improving existing code without changing its functionality – is a powerful tool to combat this. It enhances code readability, reduces complexity, and often leads to performance improvements.

In my years of programming, I’ve often observed how easy it is to get swept up in the allure of the latest programming languages or techniques and, in the process, overlook the importance of maintaining and improving existing code. Keeping up-to-date with the latest developments is crucial, but nurturing and refactoring existing codebases is equally essential, especially in a corporate setting.

With this course, I aim to strike a balance between introducing you to modern C++ techniques and guiding you to improve the legacy code that forms the backbone of many existing systems. After all, learning to refactor this code and enhance it within its original context is not just a valuable skill but also an in-demand one.

So, are you ready to embark on this exciting journey? Are you prepared to delve deeper into modern C++ and start writing cleaner, more efficient, and safer code? Join me on this path, where we’ll learn, grow, and reshape the future of C++ programming together. Let’s begin today!
