# Pimpl Idiom

The Pimpl (Pointer to Implementation) idiom is a C++ technique used to hide the implementation details of a class. This is achieved by declaring a private implementation class and holding a pointer to it within the main class. The public interface remains clean, and compile-time dependencies are significantly reduced. This promotes better code organization, reduces recompilation times, and improves binary compatibility.
