The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
Commit processing was halted at UTC 18:33 on 2026-08-05 for pkgbasify of jails and updating the host from 15.0 to 15.1 - same with jails. - that upgrade was completed by 18:53 - the website has caught up with the 6 commits it missed in that time.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
String Theory is a flexible modern C++ library for string manipulation and storage. It stores data internally as UTF-8, for ease of use with existing C/C++ APIs. It can also handle conversion to and from UTF-16, UTF-32, and Latin-1, and has a variety of methods to simplify text manipulation. In addition, String Theory includes a powerful and fast type-safe string formatter (ST::format), which can be extended with custom type formatters by end-user code.
