Namespaces
namespace	cbeam
	The root namespace for the Cbeam library. This namespace unifies cross-platform utilities for concurrency, memory management, file handling, logging, serialization, and more. Its purpose is to provide a cohesive collection of modern C++ components that address common system-level and application-level tasks, while promoting thread-safety, interprocess communication, and stable resource handling across varied platform APIs.
namespace	cbeam::filesystem
	Facilitates file I/O, path normalization, and directory operations in a cross-platform manner. Its classes and functions simplify reading, writing, creating, or deleting files and directories, handling discrepancies in path formats, symbolic links, and OS-specific peculiarities.

Functions
std::string	cbeam::filesystem::read_file (std::filesystem::path file_path)
	Reads the given file as std::string. Throws cbeam::error::runtime_error in case of errors.
void	cbeam::filesystem::write_file (const std::filesystem::path &file_path, const std::string &content)
	Creates or overwrites the given file with the given content. Throws cbeam::error::runtime_error in case of errors.
void	cbeam::filesystem::touch (const std::filesystem::path &p)
	create a file under the given path, if it does not exist yet; otherwise, the file content is left unchanges, but its modification time is updated, analogous to bash touch
std::filesystem::path	cbeam::filesystem::unique_temp_file (const std::string &extension={})
std::filesystem::path	cbeam::filesystem::unique_temp_dir ()
	get unique and non-existing temp directory
std::filesystem::path	cbeam::filesystem::create_unique_temp_file (const std::string &extension={})
std::filesystem::path	cbeam::filesystem::create_unique_temp_dir ()
	create unique temp directory, analogous to bash mktemp -d
