Explore an innovative technique in C++ template metaprogramming that transforms complex TMP code into more readable functional programming-style code, eliminating the need for template definition instantiations in most metafunctions. Learn from the presenters' journey, which began with an attempt to write a simple metafunction without template instantiations at BoostCon09, and led to the discovery of this powerful approach. Gain insights into how this method can simplify and improve the clarity of template metaprogramming code, making it more accessible and maintainable for C++ developers.
