Do you guys know any Github repos with really Bad C++ code?

Just wanna see if I can understand it, as a test... 🤔

Subscribing to this

@shinobiultra yep, I'm interested as well :)

do mine count?

my first project was a game written in c++. i dont think you find anything worse than that xD

https://github.com/nebula2/Pew

https://thc.org/root/phun/...

Not an actual repo but from here you can get inspiration

@nebula it definitely looks interesting. so far I've spotted a completely empty header and a cpp with an include guard 😅

Try my repo 😂😂

https://github.com/Electrux/...

Maybe something like https://github.com/Qfusion/qfusion/...

https://github.com/search/...

Reading "your code as a crime scene", you learn that the nastiest code is usually the most frequently updated.

So you could change the search above to most forked to get the ones that have the most frequent updates and look for the classes that have the most frequent updates to see which have the highest likelihood of being poor.

Least stars could have some great code, but on average you'll find poor code there more than great code.

Basically, GitHub has tools you can use to gain some insight on this.

Good luck with your investigation!
