Genuine question, where does te average developer go to learn CPP in 2026? Despite the usual complaints it’s alive and well and Rust will not replace it.

CPP has become infinitely easier to write for me. That’s an exact figure, my total output of usable CPP lines was zero prior to LLMs.

I do however need to at least be able to write basic CPP to evaluate the code I’m generating. It’s just so hard to comb through all the bad and over complicated code out there, bad advice and outdated opinions.
