C++ Template with CMake

Copyright (c) 2025 wold9168

---

This project includes a .gitignore file from github/gitignore and two CMakeLists.txt files with commonly used features, making it easier to build modular and extensible projects based on this template.

intro

Run init.sh to bootstrap your development environment if just and direnv are not installed. The script will install them via nix profile, but requires nix to already be installed on your system.

Prerequisites

• nix
• trash-cli

Add more libs

To add more libraries, please follow the standard procedure below:

1. Add the libraries you need in flake.nix.
2. Add the library names (e.g., imtui) to target_link_libraries in the CMakeLists.txt file of the corresponding module.
3. Run nix flake check to trigger an update of the Nix environment variables.
4. If necessary, restart your editor (especially the corresponding clangd process) so that it picks up the new environment variables.
   • Users of VSCode/VSCodium can use the extension mkhl.direnv to restart extension host with latest environment variables. If the environment variables haven't been updated automatically¹ after saving flake.nix, you can run direnv reload to toggle it manually.
