The Clang AST - a Tutorial

If you always wanted to know more about about Clang's AST [1], for example because you want to implement an awesome tool [2, 3] based on Clang, or simply because you want to start contributing, this talk is for you. Make sure to watch in HD to be able to read the font in the terminal! The semantic code completion in the vim session is powered by YCM [4], and the quick formatting is done by clang-format [5].
