Template Metaprogramming: Practical Application
summary
Tutorial shows concrete claims and tools not platitudes it demonstrates managing types as lists and maps and trading an upfront compile time cost for faster runtime by building a custom std::void_t vs indirect alias to avoid duplicate overload failures across compilers it uses Clang’s -ftime-trace JSON profiling and SpeedScope to measure compile cost and reports running ~80 implementation variants with specific results including an inheritance based lookup that is 20% faster inheritance trick for certain sizes and a type sorting/normalization that compiles and works across tested cases
