🦖 5 Amazing C++ Projects — UIs, AIs, Movies, Music and Travels

In this episode of epic open source projects I will take you to a journey to a language that is the backbone of everything, namely C++. Sit tight because what I am about to show you may blow your mind!

You can use these projects for your own benefit, learn C++ from the open source code, or even contribute by joining the coders from around the world in their effort to develop these apps. Let’s begin the feast:

The system offers you a lot of components ready to use that appear after writing a single line of code in C++. You can even bind them together to create some pretty impressive apps in a matter of hours.
