There's also std::execution, which — if I understand correctly — contains a standard equivalent to Qt's signal/slot system?

🇬🇷 🏛️ Meet Athens: Home of DjangoCon Europe 2026

We want this spring to be the best of times for everyone attending. That's why we put together a guide with places to stay, things to see and neighborhoods to explore while in Athens—combining must-see history, culture and art with cool spots to soak in the city's effervescence like a local.
