  • cmake-init

    The missing CMake project initializer

    • I very much prefer vcpkg, but it shouldn't be too hard making Conan work with CMake. Check https://github.com/friendlyanon/cmake-init, there should be an example for conan as well. I believe you should still be able to use the find_package mechanism, everything else would be ridiculous and enough reason to never use conan at all.

  • Vcpkg

    C++ Library Manager for Windows, Linux, and MacOS

    • vcpkg pulls in msys just to have the autotools scripts. vcpkg actually compiles stuff with cl.exe on windows. I mean you can also build xwin/xserver on Windows using vcpkg (but that is not in the public repo yet, see https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/pull/21584).
