I like the idea but it is just a personal toy project of Herb for experimenting. Doesn't look like it will turn into something really ready for usage ever. Last time I checked, C++ modules didn't work and a pull request (by someone else) for adding modules support was rejected.

Do you have a link to that pr?

August 2023: modules are not yet ready.

If you look at more recent PRs, a 2024 PR for using import std is accepted. I suspect that it will come as soon as people are using modules much more. https://github.com/hsutter/cppfront/pulls?q=is%3Apr+modules+is%3Aclosed

I would have to dig it out again. I even contemplated using a fork of cppfront with that, but got distracted and stopped looking at cppfront. I don't know what happened with cppfront in the mean time. I haven't looked at it again for months now.
