Explore the challenges and potential of C++20 modules in this conference talk from CppCon 2023. Delve into the packaging and binary redistribution aspects of modules, examining why they are not yet widely adopted despite their promise to reduce compilation times. Learn about the dependency issues in build order, the proposed solutions involving compiler and build system collaboration, and the limitations of current implementations. Investigate how modules fit into the existing model of binary package distribution and the additional files required for consuming prebuilt binaries. Gain insights into the current state of C++20 modules, with a focus on their potential use in external library dependencies, and understand the progress needed for widespread adoption in the C++ community.
