The one downside is that matrix and vector support hasn't yet been implemented. See [#70](https://github.com/aurora-opensource/au/issues/70) for more details, and subscribe to that issue to watch for progress. + +## ...and, at CppCon 2023 + +After CppCon 2021, we found that telling people what to look for in a units library wasn't good +enough, if they couldn't find one that met those criteria. We saw so many people struggling with +problems that we had already solved robustly! So, we set about sharing our work. With a clean +slate, we made a new library that was a drop-in replacement for Aurora's internal library, but with +zero Aurora-internal dependencies, so that we could easily open source it. The result was Au, and +we shared it at CppCon 2023.
