XS has been the way to extend perl with C or C++ code for the past decade and a half. It has become a powerful but hard to tame beast.
In this lightning talk, I'm exploring an entirely new approach to extending perl, based on C++ metaprogramming instead of preprocessing. One that doesn't require a programmer familiar with both to learn yet another language.
