About:
cppzmq provides a modern C++ interface for the ZeroMQ messaging library. As a header-only binding, it offers a type-safe, RAII-compliant API for building distributed and concurrent applications. This allows developers to leverage high-performance messaging patterns without the overhead of a separate linking step.

Key Features:

Header-only library, no linking required
Modern C++11/14/17 interface with RAII
Type-safe message handling
Seamless integration with libzmq

Use Cases:

Building high-performance distributed systems
Implementing custom messaging protocols in C++
Creating concurrent applications with message passing

Alternatives:

libzmq (C API) – cppzmq provides a safer, more idiomatic C++ wrapper over the raw C API.
