I am developing an alarm clock for disabled people using egui; I'm really impressed with the project. It's actually easy to make a web app. Later I'm going to port the gui to run on this native framebuffer, I imagine that won't be too hard.

uouu9v | Consider the following code:
#include <iostream>
#include <thread>

The std::thread constructor starts the thread. t.join() waits for the thread to finish. Only after t.join() returns can the next iteration of the loop begin. This code is roughly equivalent to:
std::thread t0(foo);
t0.join();
std::thread t1(... | 60 | cpp_questions |
