# Introduction Let's see: * You know C++? * You know some SQL? * You want to use SQL in your C++ program? * You think C++ and SQL should play well together? * You know which tables you want to use in a database? * You can cope with a few template error messages in case something is wrong? You have come to the right place! sqlpp11 offers you to code SQL in C++ almost naturally. You can use tables, columns and functions. Everything has strong types which allow the compiler to help you a lot. At compile time, it will tell about most of those pesky oversight errors you can make (typos, comparing apples with oranges, forgetting tables in a select statement, etc). And it does not stop at query construction. Results have ranges, and strongly typed members, so that you can browse through results in a type-safe manner, worthy of modern C++. The following pages will tell you how to use it: * [Database Connectors](Database.md) * [Tables](Tables.md) * [Insert](Insert.md) * [Select](Select.md) <- You might want to read this first as an appetizer * [Update](Update.md) * [Remove](Remove.md) * [Functions](Functions.md) * [Prepared Statements](Prepared-Statements.md) * [Transactions](Transactions.md) * [Thread Safety](Threads.md) * [NULL](NULL.md) * [Connection Pools](Connection-Pools.md) * [New Features](New-Features.md)
