Type	Comment
std::atomic<T> std::atomic_int std::atomic_uint std::atomic_uint64_t std::atomic_int64_t std::atomic_bool	Convenience helpers so you don't have to .load() when using std::format.
std::exception	Support for both char and wchar_t destinations.
std::runtime_error	Support for both char and wchar_t destinations.
nlohmann::json	If the library nlohmann.json is present the source json object is serialized and the output is converted to std::wstring as needed.

Dependencies

None. However, if you're using the nlohmann.json library then we will enable the serializers for that library.

• This library does not use any Windows-specific code. However, use Visual Studio 2019 v16.11.2 or newer as support for <format> is not present for GCC or Clang!
• On Windows with VisualStudio, use the Nuget package!
• Make sure you use c++latest as the <format> is no longer in the c++20 option pending ABI resolution.
