CppCoreGuidelines
The C++ Core Guidelines are a set of tried-and-true guidelines, rules, and best practices about coding in C++
Just to add a small detail: vcpkg also has Visual Studio integration, not only CMake.
And regarding repositories, since February 2021 vcpkg has an experimental support for them. You can read the spec here: https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/blob/master/docs/specific....
I'm a longtime CMake user, but I think even within the CMake world, the solution is quite a bit more complicated than just "everything needs to be CMake", with a lot of hassles that arise when multiple generations of the tooling is involved, when you're trying to pass down transitive dependencies, when package X has a bunch of custom find modules with magic to try to locate system versions of dependencies but silently fall back to vendored ones.
The higher up the stack you get, the worse and worse these problems get, with high-level packages like Tensorflow being completely intractable:

> - Waiting for Cross-Platform standardized SIMD vector datatypes
which language has standardized SIMD vector datatypes ? most languages don't even have any ability to express SIMD while in C++ I can just use Vc (https://github.com/VcDevel/Vc), nsimd (https://github.com/agenium-scale/nsimd) or one of the other ton of alternatives, and have stuff that JustWorksTM on more architectures than most languages even support
- Using nonstandard extensions, libraries or home-baked solutions to run computations in parallel on many cores or on different processors than the CPU
what are the other native languages with a standardized memory model for atomics ? and, what's the problem with using libraries ? it's not like you're going to use C# or Java's built-in threadpools if you are doing any serious work, no ? Do they even have something as easy to use as https://github.com/taskflow/taskflow ?
- Debugging cross-platform code using couts, cerrs and printfs
because people never use console.log in JS or System.println in C# maybe ?
- Forced to use boost for even quite elementary operations on std::strings.
can you point to non-trivial java projects that do not use Apache Commons ? Also, the boost string algorithms are header-only so you will end up with exactly the same binaries that if it was in some std::string_algorithms namespace:

- The public repo for ConanCenter packages, got aprox +3500 pull requests in last year https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/pulls. This doesn't count for contribution to the tool itself.
... I just checked your link and wouldn't say that any of these languages have SIMD more than C++ has it currently -
- Java: incubation stage (how is that different from https://github.com/VcDevel/std-simd). Also Java is only getting it soonish for... amd64 and aarch64 ??
