CMaker

CMaker is a CMake template for C/C++ that adopts a Cargo-like package layout.

What it does

• Designed for C and C++
• Opt for Cargo-like package layout in CMake.
• Apply GoogleTest for test and Google Benchmark for benchmark
• Use Clang-format and Clang-tidy for static program analysis (not ready yet)
• Use Memory Sanitizer for memory safety check

Why do this

In my opinion, Cargo might be the best build system in the computer world. It helps us to create a library or an execuable as ease. In addition, it allows us to run some examples or tests of your choice by the cargo run command. However, Cargo is designed only for Rust programming language. If we use C/C++ more often, how can we configure CMake to function similarly to Cargo? CMaker is the answer.
