Pimpl Idiom

The Pimpl Idiom might sound a bit unusual at first, but it’s an incredibly useful pattern in C++. It stands for “Pointer to Implementation,” and it allows us to hide the implementation details of a class from its users.

This not only leads to cleaner code but also enhances modularity and reduces compile time dependencies. If you’ve ever had to deal with long compile times due to changes in a class's implementation, you’ll appreciate what the Pimpl Idiom can do for you.
