CMake project type for Projen
npm install projen-cmakeCMake project type for Projen
C++ is a language I enjoy working in. However, I've never really been happy with any build systems I ever used. CMake is probably the best, but it still lacks a degree of user-friendliness and intuitiveness. I want a nicer build tool.
In addition, I find myself gravitating towards giving my C++ projects a very similar structure. And many elements of that structure (like unit testing setup) are repetitive and feel ripe for being automated. I want those things automated.
Be sure you've installed Projen with npm install projen .
Run the command npx projen new --from projen-cmake to create a default CMake project. Once this is done, make edits to your .projenrc.ts and regenerate with npx projen toapply changes to your project's generated files.
