Conan, a C and C++ package manager for developers
summary
Demonstrates Conan, an MIT‑licensed C/C++ package manager by showing a conanfile.py that declares dependencies (boost, Poco), uses the CMake generator and produces a Visual Studio .props for direct IDE use, installs cached binaries and switches 64↔32‑bit builds, and creates Python recipes that export sources, package headers/libs, and embed a test_package that builds and runs the example for CI. Shows a local Conan server, uploading binaries and fetching them back so consumers can install or rebuild entirely offline; the examples build and execute successfully.
