Short description

Create a polished CLI app (e.g., inventory/student manager): modular headers/sources, RAII, STL containers, exception-safe I/O, optional smart pointers, CMake/Makefile, and README with build/run instructions.

Steps

1. Design the domain and module layout.
2. Implement CRUD + persistence with STL.
3. Harden errors and memory safety.
4. Document build/run and demo the app.

Final project scope

1. Domain model with classes
2. STL containers for storage
3. File save/load
4. Menu-driven CLI
5. Input validation + error handling
6. RAII / no leaks
7. Modular .h/.cpp design
8. Build system + README
9. Basic tests or demo script
