Operator overloading in C++ allows giving additional meaning to existing operators for user-defined types. Certain operators, like `::`, `.*`, `?:`, and `.` cannot be overloaded, while the `operator` keyword is used for this purpose. Friend functions are often utilized in operator overloading to access private members of a class.
