Discuss motivation for this work.
Present a brief overview of the library's features.
Discuss library- and language-specific changes and support these with code snippets.
Cover unit testing approaches and multi-platform issues.
Reveal compromises and limitations to backported functionality.
Outline alternatives to this approach.
Answer the question: How do I "port" a C++11 program to C++14?
