Lightning Talk: Static Reflection on the Budget in C++23
summary
Shows concrete tricks to get usable static reflection with current compilers: turn a struct into a structure-to-tuple using structured bindings and requires, embed the current source and run meta_find on embedded source to locate one struct (demo finds a single Foo), extract its type and instantiate it from the found text, and recover names with a compile-time name extraction hack based on type_name/pretty_function and compile-time strings. All examples compile and run on modern C++23 toolchains.
