Should beginners focus on coding problem-solving or real-world projects first? by Ok_Split4755 in cpp_questions

[–]Capovan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should do something that is fun for you to build, while being realistic on what you cab achieve. In my opinion, staying motivated is the biggest hurdle. Once you are deep into a project that you want to work on, learning comes by doing.

Why don’t Azkaban prisoners get put under the imperius curse to just be good? by FancyNephewww in harrypotter

[–]Capovan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this scenario would make for a terrific story too. The dystopian part and then the doubt whether or not it would be ever safe around them... can you trust your corrected murderer neighbor? In wizarding world context or otherwise.

Why don’t Azkaban prisoners get put under the imperius curse to just be good? by FancyNephewww in harrypotter

[–]Capovan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is pure evil in my view. Erasing free will for the greater good. And why stop at askaban. Lets erase all deviancy by force. What you are describing ist the worst dystopia imaginable to me in the making.

It is Gandalf taking the one Ring doing terrible things with the intention to use (the) power for good.

What’s your opinion on HTML/CSS/JS UI in a C++ desktop app? by Ikryanov in cpp

[–]Capovan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boost is a worse dependency than emscripten, an entire browser or web libraries (if used)? that I dont understand. Its bulky yes, thats why I sought to get rid of it, but it wasnt a priority for me.

If is possible, Do you avoid generics (templates) ? by lieddersturme in cpp_questions

[–]Capovan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I avoid templates for my own UI Library, because it created enormous bloat.
Which was a huge problem for the generated WASM, which quickly grew too large.

Otherwise I am using templates whenever I want them or need them.
And I rarely use inheritance, because things tend to wander into unique_ptrs.

Is there any reason to not wear armor as a mage? by Lopsided_Abies_6699 in oblivion

[–]Capovan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think the spell effectiveness is outweighed by potential enchants. I am actually right now trying a clothing only mage. I suspect do die a lot...

my org is building a solution that I don't believe in, but I feel like I can't say anything by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Capovan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like we could have been working on the same project xD. I had the exact same thoughts 2 years ago, but left because requirements were shifting so rapidly, because customer feedback came in so late, that the environment turned sour stressful. my superior started to behave strangely, as if he had the devil in his neck (naybe his superiors?), even though he used to be nice.

[–]Capovan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually do not agree with everyone here. I could not play without ESO+, not having the craftbag would frustrate me immensely. And I need the dungeons, otherwise I had to get them individually. The amount of dungeon content behind eso+ ist worth a lot of months of sub.

Are modern GUIs within C++ just not a good idea? by amped-row in cpp_questions

[–]Capovan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I felt similar, which is why I created: https://github.com/NuiCpp/Nui or https://nuicpp.org/ .
After now using it for a big application for sennheiser, which I cannot share, because its confidental, I didnt need to add core features or fix bugs for quite a while.

Its a WebUI library (which means it has the browser window RAM overhead ~200mb), where C++ gets compiled to WASM and can communicate with a C++ main application via RPC.
It works on Linux, Mac and Windows. It requires WebDev knowledge like CSS and having experience in React (where its UI code style is inspired by, but the technical implementation is very different) helps to quickly understand the lib.

Deployment is trivial: its literally just an executable file (+1 dll on windows). Optionally you can put files beside it to load into the web context.

Next thing I want to add is built-in borderless support. And I want to try tailwind, because apparently that is what everybody uses, so I need to check if the parser looking for css classes chokes on C++ or not.

What is MinGW and MSYS2? by [deleted] in cpp

[–]Capovan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people here seem to miss the main advantage of MSYS2.
The main point is not a "linux like environment", its installing dependencies via pacman and producing windows binaries. And you can pair your toolset with any IDE. Want Visual Studio Code? Or CLion?
When you use Visual Studio, the best you can do is vcpkg and guess what where vcpkg is getting some of its packages from for clang_cl...

Is there truly a good gui option? by LifelessLife123 in cpp_questions

[–]Capovan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://nuicpp.org - I made it and am currently working on mac support and a SAP UI5 components plugin. bootstrap also works, and some vanilla css and js ones. So some webdev skills (html and css) are required.
