Have built a V1 of a simple to use C++ API for Mongo.
Would love some feedback on the interface.

Wow! It looks very interesting! Congrats!
After a fast review of the documentation, here are some thoughts:

  • Pros:

    • Available in brew
    • Nicely documented. Complete and to the point.
    • Code is very readable.
    • Good MVP scope.

  • Potential improvement

    • I’d consider providing it as a Conan and/or Vcpkg package
    • What is the minimum C++ version? C++17? C++20?
    • If it is C++20, I’d consider using reflection for serialization. And regarding the friend functions, still, not convinced that private data should be serialized.
      Keep up the great work!
      Best regards,

    Jorge

There is a conan.py file in the root of the package (now just added).

The minimum version is C++20.
