Abstract

Attend this talk to learn about Mojo, the new framework, library, and coding guideline that enables you to pass and return values without fearing that copying temporaries is going to ruin runtime performance or your code review. Mojo guarantees that, if you follow a number of simple rules when designing your classes, you will totally eliminate unnecessary copying.

Learn about Mojo from its own creator for 90 fun and instructive minutes. Mojo uses a cornucopia of interesting tricks and techniques that are likely to make your day whether you use C++ (you’ll be happy you can apply them) or other languages (you’ll be happy you can’t apply them).
