How to run

To compile the project you should have compiler that supports C++20 & cmake. You have to remember about two things:

• Graphical files are stored in git-lfs
• Package manager is stored as github submodule
• Dependencies are installed via vcpkg

Downloading the repo

So, before you start, you must first download checkout git-lfs (https://git-lfs.github.com/)

> git lfs install
> git lfs pull

In case you already run git lfs install before cloning the repo, pull is not needed

To download submodules, run:

> git submodule init
> git submodule update

Next step is to install all dependencies with vcpkg

Install dependencies with package manager

Linux & MacOS

  ./vcpkg/bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
  ./vcpkg/vcpkg install

Windows

.\vcpkg\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
.\vcpkg\vcpkg install

CMake generation

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Please keep in mind that:

• All PRs should contain tests.
• To format the code, please use clang-format (configuration file is attached to the repo)
• Naming convention must be kept consistent:
  • class/struct/enum names: PascalCase
  • class members: mCamelCase
  • class methods: snake_case
  • free functions: snake_case
  • function parameters: snake_case
  • local variables: snake_case
  • global constants: UPPER_SNAKE_CASE
