Overview of this book

Software architecture refers to the high-level design of complex applications. It is evolving just like the languages we use, but there are architectural concepts and patterns that you can learn to write high-performance apps in a high-level language without sacrificing readability and maintainability. If you're working with modern C++, this practical guide will help you put your knowledge to work and design distributed, large-scale apps. You'll start by getting up to speed with architectural concepts, including established patterns and rising trends, then move on to understanding what software architecture actually is and start exploring its components. Next, you'll discover the design concepts involved in application architecture and the patterns in software development, before going on to learn how to build, package, integrate, and deploy your components. In the concluding chapters, you'll explore different architectural qualities, such as maintainability, reusability, testability, performance, scalability, and security. Finally, you will get an overview of distributed systems, such as service-oriented architecture, microservices, and cloud-native, and understand how to apply them in application development. By the end of this book, you'll be able to build distributed services using modern C++ and associated tools to deliver solutions as per your clients' requirements.

Summary

In this chapter, you've learned a lot about building and packaging your code. You're now able to write faster-building template code, know how to choose the tools to compile your code faster (you'll learn more about tooling in the next chapter), and know when to use forward declarations instead of #include directives.

Aside from that, you can now define your build targets and test suites using Modern CMake, manage external dependencies using find modules and FetchContent, create packages and installers in various formats, and last but not least, use Conan to install your dependencies and create your own artifacts.

In the next chapter, we will look at how to write code that would be easy to test. Continuous integration and continuous deployment are useful only if you have good test coverage. Continuous deployment without comprehensive testing will allow you to introduce new bugs to production much quicker. This is not our goal when we design software architecture...
