 ====== Modernizing the VanillaJuce code base ======

 It occurred to me that Jules's "quick code review" could form the basis of a nice little article, so instead of simply working through the list and updating the code, I've decided to document the process here, for the benefit of other programmers who, like me, may not be familiar with the latest C++ features and practices.
+I'll start by reorganizing Jules's list into categories, and write something about each.
+===== Outdated C syntax and library functions =====
+  * [[enum_class_rather_than_typedef_enum|C++11 "enum class" rather than C "typedef enum"]]
+  * [[eliminate_char_arrays|C++ string classes instead of char[] arrays]]
+  * [[constexpr instead of preprocessor define]]
+===== Pointers and references =====
+  * [[Avoid new/delete, prefer references to pointers, use member variables for sub-Components]]
+===== Newer C++ features and constructs =====
+  * [[Range-based for loops]]
+  * [[inline member variable initialization]]
