This video is about cpp2, a proposed new syntax for C++ by Herb Sutter, a famous C++ expert.

"The goal is to address existing problems in C++ by embracing the solutions and guidance we've already de facto adopted, and to have to explain less rather than more." [1]

I found a repo with some examples of the syntax [2]. For example:

    myclass : type = {
        data: int = 42;
        more: std::string = std::to_string(42);

        // method
        print: (this) = {
            std::println("data: (data)$, more: (more)$");
        }

        // non-const method
        inc: (inout this) = data++;
    }

    main: () = {
        x: myclass = ();
        x.print();
        x.inc();
        x.print();
    }
