Porting Codevis to KDE
The Problem with C++ Tooling
An ISO accepted C++ tooling is inexistent, so each project will choose their own toolings based on personal preference, and sometimes, based on Corporations preferences, and unfortunately there's no common ground on what should be used. There are some programs that got the
Standard by consensus
, likeCMake
. But even tough, projects will choosehandmade makefiles
,KConfig
,meson
,autotools
, and many others exist.The same thing happens for Package Managers, each Linux distributtion has a variant of packages, and on top of that there's
vcpkg
,conan
- each one with pros and cons.
