Welcome to the Fancy Argument Parser wiki!

This is an open-source, single-header library for parsing C++ command-line arguments. The library is distributed under the MIT license. It follows the philosophy of Python's argparse library.

Features of this library:

  • simple to add to your project
  • pretty, auto-generated help
  • simple to use
  • can be used in any kind of project, both commercial and open source, without restrictions

The library supports C++11 and later.

If you're new to argument parsers, start with the tutorial.

A zip archive with the class reference is available. Unzip it and open Documentation/html/index.html.
