About:
Zmqpp is a lightweight C++ wrapper for the ZeroMQ (ØMQ) communication library. It provides a high-level, object-oriented API that simplifies the complexity of socket management and message serialization. This binding allows developers to build distributed and concurrent applications with cleaner, more idiomatic C++ code.

Key Features:

High-level object-oriented C++ API
RAII for automatic resource management
Simple message framing and sending
Header-only or easy-link library options

Use Cases:

High-frequency trading systems requiring low-latency messaging
Distributed computing and parallel processing tasks
Real-time backend services and microservices communication

Alternatives:

libzmq (C API) – The native C API is more verbose and manual, whereas Zmqpp provides safer, idiomatic C++ abstractions.
cppzmq – cppzmq is a modern, header-only alternative often preferred for newer C++ projects, while Zmqpp offers a slightly different API style.
