  >But is it truly practical to use in 'higher-abstraction' apps like web or mobile? Yes absolutely. Once you become familiar with the language the barrier is not that high. Familiarity trumps everything else. That said, since i am not a Web/mobile developer i had collected some resources to help me learn how to use C++ for Web/Mobile apps, you may find it useful; https://levelup.gitconnected.com/cross-platform-mobile-and-web-development-with-c-explained-aac9952b4f8c https://levelup.gitconnected.com/cross-platform-mobile-and-w... https://github.com/Microsoft/cpprestsdk https://github.com/Microsoft/cpprestsdk https://medium.com/@ivan.mejia/modern-c-micro-service-implementation-rest-api-b499ffeaf898 https://medium.com/@ivan.mejia/modern-c-micro-service-implem...

  Web and mobile is possible but anyone experience in both will realise c++ is only suitable for a minor subset of these.

  I have been working on many mobile apps that would share a C++ model between iOS and Android, and use platform-specific code for views.

  Not really. If you want to do iOS development, there's no point in using C++. The Swift interop with C++ is very painful. I think for Android development, the NDK support is much better and there you might be able to leverage C++ much easier.
