It is a toy project to experiment with JSON and HTTP requests on C++14.

Build it: mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make

Usage: coinprice [EUR|USD|GBP]

I tried to imitate the KISS philosophy used in traditional UNIX tools.

You call the command, by default it returns the current bitcoin price from coindesk in Euros.

USD and GBP are also supported.

For now it only supports BTC.

• Features in modern C++ (C++11)
• JSON for Modern C++
• C++ Requests: Curl for People

The question remains, how far can I go with modern C++ until finding the complexity issues that interpreted languages have promised to solve?
