Explore the concept of monads in modern C++ through this comprehensive conference talk from CppCon 2023. Delve into the world of functional programming techniques as Georgi Koyrushki and Alistair Fisher demystify monads and their increasing relevance in C++ development. Learn how monads can reduce boilerplate, abstract detail, and produce simple, pure pipelines in C++23 and beyond. Gain practical insights into the internal workings of monads through theory and coding examples inspired by real-world applications in large-scale enterprise financial risk systems. Discover how these functional features are becoming core pillars of C++ development and their applicability across various programming languages. No prior functional programming knowledge is required for this enlightening session, which aims to make monads accessible and understandable to developers of all levels.
