Fruit is a dependency injection framework for C++, loosely inspired by Java's Guice. It uses C++11 metaprogramming to catch most injection errors at compile time and organizes code into composable components from which injectors create instances.

Use cases

• dependency injection in C++ projects
• bind interfaces to implementations at compile time
• split C++ code into composable modules/components
• catch missing bindings and dependency loops before runtime
• assisted injection and factory auto-registration in C++
• low-overhead DI for performance-sensitive C++ applications

When to choose

• you want Guice-style DI in C++ with errors caught at compile time
• you need modular component assembly with minimal runtime overhead
• you want a mature, Google-backed DI framework with cross-platform CI

When to avoid

• your project targets pre-C++11 compilers
• you prefer runtime-configured DI or reflection-based containers
• you need DI for languages other than C++
