Because there wasn't enough!
I just wanted to draw a fucking box on the screen.
This is the culmination of 4 hours of poking at build errors, missing libraries, and intense searching.
Have the following installed:
cmake
(from kitware directly if on macos)vcpkg
(I had to git clone from Microsoft's repo directly and add that path as$VCPKG_ROOT
)ninja
Then just:
./init.sh
cd build
ninja
./something
Many wow. Such box.
The main.cpp
code was lifted from sjr here:
