C++, despite being a really powerful language, has a really primitive build system. Developers have to wade through a complex soup of Makefiles/CMake/Gyp/ninja etc just to get a project set up. There's conan for package management, but it pales when compared to Cargo or Gradle. Moreover setting up Conan is a full time job in itself, and it's not without weird quirks either. I've not tried Bazel yet, and would love to hear if it's as good as Xooglers say.

C++ on Jupyter looks amazing, and I really hope it makes starting with C++ easier.
