The keynotes at CppCon 2026 in Aurora, Colorado, have continued to inspire, and today we’re thrilled to share Wednesday’s keynote of the conference from C++ expert Timur Doumler!

Timur’s talk, titled How C++26 changes the way we write code, explored impactful new features like reflection and contract assertions to highlight the essential ideas developers need to understand. You can read more about his talk on the original announcement page.
