Description

xeus-cpp is a Jupyter kernel for cpp based on the native implementation of the Jupyter protocol xeus. This enables users to write and execute C++ code interactively, seeing the results immediately. This REPL (read-eval-print-loop) nature allows rapid prototyping and iterations without the overhead of compiling and running separate C++ programs. This also achieves C++ and Python integration within a single Jupyter environment.

The xeus-cpp is a successor of xeus-clang-repl and xeus-cling. The project goal is to advance the project feature support to the extent of what’s supported in xeus-clang-repl and xeus-cling.
