Filesystem Library

The Filesystem Library in C++ is a game changer for anyone who needs to work with file systems. It provides a standardized way to manipulate file paths, directories, and files, making cross-platform development much easier. If you've ever struggled with string manipulations for file paths or needed to check if a file exists, you're in for a treat.
