Hi everyone, I often see developers struggle to organize clean class architectures when using raw Linux APIs (epoll, timerfd). On the other hand, bringing in large frameworks like Qt or Boost.Asio for lightweight embedded tasks is often overkill. I am working on a concept for a highly lightweight, Linux-only C++ wrapper that packages native APIs into a clean, event-driven structure (inspired by Qt) with zero cross-platform abstraction overhead. It depends only on the Linux kernel, making it highly portable across all architectures (ARM, x86, etc.). Here is a quick draft of how the API looks: code C++ int main() { LEventLoop loop; LTimer timer; timer.onTimeout([]() { std::cout << "Timeout event!" << std::endl; }); timer.start(100); // 100ms interval return loop.exec(); } The Plan I want to expand this design (using a base LEpollHandler class) to support: Timers (timerfd) GPIO (modern gpiod API) Sockets (non-blocking TCP/UDP) Serial Ports (termios) Questions for you: Would you find a…
