Am I missing something, or is this article virtually content-free?


You are not missing anything.


Wait, the domain is called "modernescpp.com", that's Moderns Cpp... not Modern Cpp.

Wow, that's not good....


That's intentional as it is a translation of a German blog:

> Because the roots of my blogs are in German, I will continue to call him Modernes C++. That is not by mistake.

http://www.modernescpp.com/index.php/warum-einen-blog-zu-mod...

Not saying it's a good decision...


I'd would say that even in German, the brand was pretty well established: http://www.amazon.de/Modernes-Design-Programmierung-Entwurfs...


Assuming in German C++ is neuter, and referred to with the das article, Modernes Cpp is correct and singular.


No, I totally get that it is a German variant of the English expression "Modern C++", but you have a fair bit of overlap with a very well established brand in the C++ community...


It is.


> German C++ is neuter

neuter, was that intentional?
