Does anyone have any recommendations for learning to write modern, idiomatic C++? I used C++ in college for data structures and algorithms, so I have some familiarity with the basics. But we were mostly restricted to using C++98, and I'm not sure what the best practices look like these days with the changes introduced in 11, 14, and 17.

This c++ is very different from the c++ I remember. I'd like to learn more about modern c++ style and idioms. Can anyone recommend a good text?
