Building Projects

Conan 2 C++ Package Manager

This repo uses Conan 2 as the package manager to wrangle the correct version of external libraries required to support the different C++ projects it contains. The reason for opting for Conan is that by an large most packages I would want to use have a Conan recipe already made for it, and after the headache of installing conan, using Conan is a very simple and provides a uniform way for CMake to reliably grab dependecies that doesn't involve FETCH_CONTENT.

Configuring, Building, & Running Projects

While it maybe considered unorthodox, I personally fine the Makefiles make great simple script runners. By utilizing CMake targets, I can quickly invoke dependency installation, cmake configuration & building, and even running and testing C++ executables very simple.

# Install External Dependencies via Conan2
make install_deps

# Configure CMake
make config

# Build/Compile C++ Project
make build
