A new blog entry demonstrates parsing JSON at compile time using C++26 static reflection.
The author shows how compile‑time evaluation can replace runtime parsing code. Static
reflection provides introspection of types, enabling automatic JSON mapping. The technique
reduces runtime overhead and improves application startup speed. Sample code illustrates
defining a data structure and generating a parser automatically. The post discusses
compatibility with existing C++ toolchains and compiler support. It also notes potential
limitations and areas for future language enhancements. Readers are encouraged to
experiment with the approach in their own projects.
