const_fmt

An extremely lightweight library, intentionally resembling fmtlib as much as possible. This is achieved by moving as much of the formatting process as possible to compile time.

Meant for systems with very few resources, such as embedded systems.

Overview

During compile-time, the string to be formatted is preprocessed to the point, only the actual values to be formatted have to be written (If they are not available at compile time).

For example One number: {:08}; And another one: {:05.3} is preprocessed into One number: 000; And another one: 00.000. This is returned as a std::array<char, N>, where N is automatically evaluated. The only code executed at compile time then formats the numbers and writes them into their place in the array.

Disclaimer: The actual formatting code is largely shamelessly stolen from fmtlib.
