How do you even get started programming in c++ on Windows?
Anyway, I have combined various talks and the reference docs into an opinionated package for easy consumption: https://github.com/friendlyanon/cmake-init You'll find many things implemented here and the examples wiki page in a proper manner. I have also been told by someone who owns the book that it closely resembles things that are also in the book, just less words and more code.

File and folder structuring conventions
Stick with pitchfork style also mentioned in the thread. I use https://github.com/friendlyanon/cmake-init to get the boilerplate out of the way for new projects.

CMake+Conan2 project template example repositories?
I can confirm that cmake-init works with Conan v2.
