Question

Will there be more C++ courses coming out?

So, I've bought the C compiler course (as well as the full kernel/OS dev series) and have been enjoying it so far. But I've actually been doing it in C++ rather than C like it does in the course, because I just find C++ to be so much easier to work with (as well as being a more modern alternative for a whole number of reasons). So far I haven't had much difficulty in doing this, but I was just wondering if an actually C++-dedicated course on the topic of langdev (or OSdev) would be beneficial to the systems programming community.

Hey good question, I do have a C++ course but nothing that is C++ with kernel development planned at this time. My personal opinion is it is better to write kernel's in C because then if you must support C++ later you can just create a wrapper API in C++ so effectively C++ code that calls the low level C functions, this is a much more scalable system.

I think that some rust code kernel development would be more likely from myself as I know that is a hot topic right now, but personally I don't think anything is going to replace C It was basically built for these problems, but we will see I could be wrong.
