Packages are not really a thing in C++, partly because there are so many different environments and compilers anyway, and partly because C++ apps aren’t really made by stitching together hundreds or thousands of tiny packages like in Node.
On Windows you might use NuGet, on Linux you might use whatever the native package format is, but you would thinking fewer, bigger libraries rather than what you’re used to.
If you are looking for REST stuff try Casablanca, it’s on Github or in the repo for Ubuntu.
- pjmlp 8y agoVcpkg is becoming the way to go for those that don't mind compiling everything, otherwise NuGet as usual.
- andrewmcwatters 8y agoVcpkg has been really helpful for me, however I can't recommend its usage in day-to-day work considering it compiles things differently from vanilla releases. It was a rather deceptive aspect of its usage that wasn't well advertised. Compilation units should be functionally equivalent to releases directly from vendors.
