## What it is
A community-maintained roadmap for learning C++, presented as an editable draw.io/SVG diagram with supporting articles, book recommendations, developer grading, and pet-project ideas. It is available in English, Russian, and Chinese and targets beginners through mid-level developers.

## Use cases
- learn c++ from scratch
- what order should i study c++ topics
- c++ roadmap for beginners
- find books to learn c++
- prepare for a junior c++ developer job
- self-study plan for c++
- pet project ideas for c++ practice

## When to choose
- you are starting C++ and want a structured, ordered learning path
- you want curated book and resource recommendations per skill level
- you want to gauge your level (junior/middle) against a skills map
- you prefer an editable visual roadmap you can adapt to your own plan

## When to avoid
- you need an interactive course with exercises or graded assignments - this is a reference map, not a course
- you want a roadmap for a language other than C++
- you need the Miro version, which is no longer kept in sync
- you require content under a permissive license - it is CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 (non-commercial)
