Can someone give me some tips on how to become proficient in C++ quickly? I know C, Python, Go, and C# well.

Also important note, we are using C++ 17 and unfortunately program on windows. My team at my job has decided to rewrite most of our tools in our data pipeline in C++, and they are currently in a proprietary fortran dialect, python, and C#

Do they do code review? If so, read some recent and older ones and learn from the review comments.

Yikes good luck man. Just learn as you go. Try and lean on the standard library

I appreciate the advice. I'll try and get used to doing things the C++ way and avoid the temptation to basically just write C. Luckily, the style we've agreed upon is basically just mostly procedural code with smart pointers.
