Source code of C++ projects to be read by an average programmer
What are some small or medium C++ projects(some small games may be) whose source code an average programmer should read to improve his C++ design and programming skills?
- rachelbythebay 14y agoI don't have any examples, but people keep asking me about this sort of stuff, so I've been working on making some. The idea is that we pick a web site or two, identify a couple of interesting features, and then I clone it. All the while, I take copious notes and snapshot often so everyone can see how it grows from an empty directory into an actual usable site. This isn't about having yet another Twitter clone (or whatever), but rather having the ability to see one come into being, one step at a time.
- mbkv 14y agothanks. you have a github profile or some blogposts describing those cloned features that you made?
- rachelbythebay 14y agoSure, I just started talking about it here: http://rachelbythebay.com/w/2013/01/20/learn/ http://rachelbythebay.com/w/2013/01/20/learn/ I'm gathering interested people right now.

- mbkv 14y agoThanks. There are some hn'ers who are ready to help newbies. But that kind of requires atleast a minimal knowledge on compilers. right? What i am looking for is an application or a small game developed in c++ that uses various libraries, to understand how the project is structured in the first place. How the classes have been designed and how they interoperate.
