{fmt} is an open-source formatting library that provides a safe replacement for the printf family of functions. Errors in format strings, which are a common source of vulnerabilities in C, are reported at compile time. Formatting of most standard types, including all containers, dates, and times is supported out-of-the-box. Also, {fmt} provides portable Unicode support on major operating systems with UTF-8 and char strings.
