This month we expect the std::expected, subscript in multiple dimensions, zip and enumerate our way to defining contracts, while surveying the C++ community. We also take a look at the latest CLion and ReSharper C++ releases, GCC 11, a Cuda extension for VS Code, and the Pure Virtual C++ and C++ Now conferences (which have already now passed before this episode was released).
