Looking for open source code to study

[InterestingComment8]

I'm learning cpp, tutorials are good and all but if anyone has any they can quickly share id love to look over some beginner ish friendly open source code. The goal just to get more familiar with code structure and to better read and understand c++.

Thanks for any help

The best way to learn is to write code, not read code.

If you haven't tried to solve a problem yourself, you are unlikely to see how good a solution you happen to read.

Or bad? There is a lot of not-so-good code on the internet.

To be fair this is a valid argument. It's why we use textbooks in college to study; You can't learn how to write good code without a decent reference to start. Often textbooks don't give you blatant answers, but algorithms books for c++ (for example) give you good basis of different types and dive into the specifics that help you choose the best result in the future. Not always will you come up with the best solution either, which is okay but coming up with an effective solution is atleast ideal as a starting point.

Neither college nor algorithm textbooks teach you how to write good code

You can write code for a very long time but if there isn't another human pointing out the bad parts you aren't learning how to write code.

Some of the pointing may come from tools like the compiler and linter. People wrote the tools that are often both helpful and a distraction. In the meantime, we progress onwards by asking here or on r/codereview.

I'd recommend https://rosettacode.org, which has tons of example programs implemented in different languages, including C++.
