Description of the library/tool

Native C++ implementation of Testcontainers: throwaway Docker containers for integration tests, driven directly over the Docker Engine HTTP API — no docker CLI dependency and no wrapper around another language's implementation. There is currently no Testcontainers implementation on ConanCenter.

• C++20 static library for Linux, Windows and macOS. First-class Windows support: Docker Desktop named-pipe transport and real Windows containers (CI runs the integration suite in both engine modes).
• Container lifecycle with RAII teardown plus the Ryuk reaper for crash-safe cleanup; wait strategies, exec, copy to/from container, networks, volumes, build-from-Dockerfile, Docker Compose, registry auth including credential helpers, container reuse, host-port exposure.
• All dependencies are already on ConanCenter: boost (header-only Beast/Asio usage), nlohmann_json, libarchive, plus optional openssl/libssh2 behind the tls / host_port_forwarding options.
• Licensed MIT OR Apache-2.0. First release v0.1.0 (2026-07-10).

A CCI-shaped recipe is already prepared and verified locally on gcc/clang/msvc (static and shared on Linux, static on Windows with a clean ConanInvalidConfiguration for shared, test_package runs without Docker): https://github.com/cppudge/testcontainers-cpp/tree/main/packaging/conan-center. I am the author and will submit the recipe PR myself.
