The Ultimate List of C++ Community Resources in 2026

cppreference

• community-curated standard library and language reference
• C++98 - C++26 and technical specifications (TS)
• C89 - C23
• many (runnable) examples

Zeal

Offline documentation browser for

• C++ and C docs from cppreference.com
• Boost, Qt4, Qt5, Qt6 docs
• Python docs
• … and many other languages, tools and libraries

The browser tree could be improved, unfortunately C++ entities are not properly categorized into concepts, types, etc.

Ivan Čukić wrote a nice script that allows fuzzy browsing of Zeal resources from the command line.

stdman

A tool that parses archived HTML files from cppreference and generates groff-formatted manual pages for Unix-based systems.
