In C++ you can use indifferently either the class or typename keyword to introduce template arguments (because of course you can). A lot of styleguides suggest using typename because class is slightly misleading (the type could be anything not just a class).

In practice everybody just uses class, because who as the time to type the full keyword and signature declarations in C++ are already unwieldy as it is.

Anyone using a proper IDE instead of notepad like editor.

		I have that and still prefer class, easier to type(not just shorter, but easier keys) and less to read. Only use typename in the rare case where it is required

		I do use a proper ide with with clangd completion and all kind of helper macros, but I can still type 'class' faster than I can trigger completion.
