ADVICE

Standardizing Build Systems

  • Standardize C++ project build systems using CMake and Git.
  • This simplifies dependency management and improves code sharing.
INSIGHT

CMake Complexity

  • CMake scripts in large projects can become unwieldy and difficult to manage.
  • Treat build systems as software, applying good engineering practices for maintainability.
ADVICE

Managing Dependencies with CMake

  • Hijack CMake's find system to manage source code for dependencies instead of binaries.
  • This allows for easier editing and consistent interfaces for third-party libraries.
