Installation

First, you'll need to install Conan 2, a C and C++ package manager.

Next, create a Conan profile:

conan profile list
conan profile show -pr default

Here is my profile configuration for reference:

Macos	Windows
[settings]	[settings]
arch=x86_64	arch=x86_64
build_type=Release	build_type=Release
compiler=apple-clang	compiler=gcc
compiler.cppstd=gnu17	compiler.cppstd=14
compiler.libcxx=libc++	compiler.libcxx=libstdc++11
compiler.version=15	compiler.version=13
os=Macos	os=Windows

Once you have configured your Conan profile, navigate to the project directory to pull dependencies.

conan install conanfile.txt --build=missing

You will notice that a CMakeUserPresets.json file is generated, making it easy to use the new CMake command.

conanfile.txt: CMakeToolchain generated: CMakeUserPresets.json

Then, run these commands to build the app:

cmake --preset conan-release
cmake --build --preset conan-release

Alternatively, you can use Visual Studio Code to compile, checkout the configuration from the vscode branch:

OS	Build
Macos	Command + Shift + B
Windows	Ctrl + Shift + B

After that, the build is successfully created in the build/Release folder.

-- Build files have been written to: tetris/build/Release

Finally, to run the game, navigate to the Release folder in the terminal, then run the command:

./tetris
