C++ Unlocked: Modern Practices, Memory Management, and Performance Tuning

Write Fast. Write Smart. Write Modern C++.

C++ Unlocked is your expert guide to mastering modern C++ development — blending the language’s powerful low-level control with high-level abstractions to write safe, fast, and maintainable code. Whether you're upgrading from legacy C++ or just beginning your systems programming journey, this book will teach you how to build performance-critical applications with confidence.

Explore modern C++ standards (C++11 through C++23), best practices, and tools that empower you to maximize efficiency, memory safety, and cross-platform performance.
