A decade of Modern C++; from 11 to 20

Over the last decade, we have seen three further revisions of the standard (C++14/17/20), culminating in the release of C++20 in December of last year.
However, many embedded engineers are still wary of C++ and live with the misconception that it is unsuitable for embedded development.
This talk looks at the evolution of C++ and where an embedded engineer may realise significant safety and performance benefits by adopting modern C++.
