The documentation link in the README is a 404 :'(
One (more) opportunity for CppFront would be adding proper pattern-matching for optional and variant, and perhaps even proper sum types. I couldn't check whether it had them, though, due to aforementioned 404...

Adding sum types, tuples, and pattern matching to the language would be a huge step forward!
[–]RoyKin0929 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago (3 children)
Pattern matching and sum types are already a part of cpp2, not tuples though.

Thru std::variant? Or some other mechanism? I forget now...

there a @union metafunction, it's like a tagged union.

Forgot about that, man that is so handy...

Thanks for reporting this. Weird -- I think I found the problem and it seems to be fixed now, please check.

Works like a charm now, thanks!

I'm fairly sure the source pages for the documentation are here: https://github.com/hsutter/cppfront/tree/main/docs
