Dear potential contributors,

A skilled individual to develop a Makefile template tailored specifically for C++ (CPP) projects is needed.

Requirements for CPP Makefile Template:

Modularity: The Makefile should be modular, allowing for easy addition and modification of source files, headers, and dependencies.
Automatic Dependency Generation: Implement automatic dependency generation to ensure that changes to header files trigger recompilation of affected source files.
Support for Different Build Configurations: Include support for different build configurations (e.g., debug, release) with appropriate compiler flags and optimization settings.
Platform Independence: Ensure that the Makefile is platform-independent and works across different operating systems (Linux, macOS, Windows(maybe) ).
Clean and Maintainable: Follow best practices for writing clean and maintainable Makefiles, including proper commenting and organization of rules.
Variable Usage: Utilize variables effectively for compiler settings, file names, and directory paths to enhance flexibility and ease of maintenance.
Phony Targets: Define phony targets for common tasks such as compiling, cleaning, and running the program.
Error Handling: Implement error handling to gracefully handle compilation and linking errors, providing informative error messages to the user.
Documentation: Include documentation within the Makefile itself (as well as a README), explaining its structure, usage, and customization options.
