Here are some common applications of object-oriented programming and C++:
- Desktop applications like word processors, spreadsheets, etc. The document is an object and formatting, editing operations are methods.

- GUI (Graphical User Interface) toolkits like MFC, Qt. Windows, buttons etc. are predefined object classes.
- Web applications and frameworks. Objects represent pages, forms, database entities etc.
