A minimal, header-only C++11 thread pool library that manages a fixed set of worker threads executing queued tasks. Tasks return std::future objects, allowing callers to retrieve results asynchronously.
Use cases
- run tasks in parallel with a fixed worker pool in C++
- enqueue functions and get results via futures
- avoid manually managing std::thread instances
- parallelize CPU-bound workloads
- implement background task execution in a C++ application
When to choose
- you need a tiny, dependency-free thread pool in modern C++
- you want std::future-based task results with minimal boilerplate
- you prefer a single-header library that is easy to drop into any project
When to avoid
- you need advanced features like work stealing, priorities, or dynamic resizing
- your project targets C++ standards older than C++11
- you need a full async runtime or coroutine integration
