L'Arve - A Receiver Toolkit

Exploring ways of receiving UDP data from hybrid pixel detectors

Ideas

• Loosley copupled receiver toolkit
• Used to build a receiver, not a receiver
• Assume no packet loss for fast path
• Get the fundamentals right...

Open questions

• Driven from UDP side or assembly side?
• How deep do we go with templates?
• C++ 20/23?
• Python bindings using cppyy or pybind11?
• Move image data/data span to it's own library??

Dependencies (at the moment)

• A C++17 compiler
• Catch2 v3 - Unit tests
• libfmt - Sensible formatting and printing
