About Boost.org and the Boost Libraries
Boost is a development group creating free software libraries suitable for inclusion in the C++ standard. [1] Boost libraries cover a wide range of domains, from concurrency to numerics to language interoperability. The Boost libraries, many of which have passed through the C++ standardization process, have become widely known as an industry standard for design and implementation quality, robustness, and reusability.
