Could you explain more about it's use as a skill? We're running low on storage for cloudflare workers and I want to make sure only popular and actual skills are added- not just every possible thing people know.

Boost isn't really that popular.

@tandpfun It's basically standard to use this library for C++ development. If you go through most projects you will see that everyone uses it and recommend to use it, to this date.

@ThatOneCalculator What do you mean it's not popular? I don't understand.

Boost is old AF and most people use OpenFrameworks or Folly (or even Abseil).

The problem I see is that boost is so large adding it as a skill could be a bit arbitrary.

However, I strongly disagree that boost is not popular.

it's somewhat popular in a niche space, but not as popular as its competition
