Complete Beginner Tutorial

This directory contains a complete beginner tutorial for the OnceCallback component, consisting of 13 articles that cover the full learning path from reviewing basic C++ features to component implementation and testing.

Prerequisites

First, master the core C++ features required by OnceCallback:

1. OnceCallback Prerequisites Quick Reference: C++11/14/17 Core Features Review
2. OnceCallback Prerequisites (Part 1): Function Types and Template Partial Specialization
3. OnceCallback Prerequisites (Part 2): std::invoke and the Uniform Calling Convention
4. OnceCallback Prerequisites (Part 3): Advanced Lambda Features
5. OnceCallback Prerequisites (Part 4): Concepts and requires Constraints
6. OnceCallback Prerequisites (Part 5): std::move_only_function (C++23)
7. OnceCallback Prerequisites (Part 6): Deducing this (C++23)

Hands-on Practice

After learning the prerequisites, we start implementing OnceCallback:

1. OnceCallback in Practice (Part 1): Motivation and API Design
2. OnceCallback in Practice (Part 2): Building the Core Skeleton
3. OnceCallback in Practice (Part 3): Implementing bind_once
4. OnceCallback in Practice (Part 4): Cancellation Token Design
5. OnceCallback in Practice (Part 5): then Chaining Composition
6. OnceCallback in Practice (Part 6): Testing and Performance Comparison
