About:
Nanomsgxx is a C++11 header-only library that provides a modern, object-oriented wrapper around the nanomsg networking library. It simplifies socket creation and management by utilizing RAII for automatic resource handling. The library enables developers to build scalable, high-performance distributed systems with a clean, idiomatic C++ interface.

Key Features:

Header-only library for easy integration
RAII-based socket and context management
Modern C++11 interface with smart pointers
Supports all nanomsg scalability protocols
Zero-copy message passing capabilities

Use Cases:

Building high-performance distributed microservices
Implementing scalable message-passing architectures
Creating real-time data processing pipelines

Alternatives:

libzmq – ZeroMQ C++ binding; more mature but with a different API philosophy
nanomsg – The raw C library; requires manual memory and socket management
