Description
Poac is a package manager for C++ users.
Poac can download project's dependencies and compile a project. Please see poac.pm, installation instructions, and The Poac Book for more details.
Demo
By using Poac, you can create a C++ project, build sources, and execute an application:

Installation
Easy install
curl -fsSL https://sh.poac.pm | bash
For Arch Linux users, there are AUR packages: poac, poac-devel-git, and poac-git
Manual install (Build)
Poac requires the following compilers, tools, and packages to build:
compilers
- Compilers which support C++20
tools
cmake:3.17or later
packages
The packages with names in italics are not needed installing before the following commands because they will be automatically installed when configuring by CMake.
boost:1.70.0or later- algorithm
- asio
- beast
- dynamic_bitset
- graph
- predef
- property_tree
- range
- scope_exit
- test (dev)
- uuid

After you prepared the requirements, you can build Poac using the following commands:
$ git clone https://github.com/poacpm/poac.git
$ cd poac
$ mkdir build && cd $_
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
$ make # or ninja
$ make install
Why Poac?
C++ is often considered to be a complicated language and shunned unconsciously by most people. It is thought that it is hard to construct a C++ environment, there is no definitive package manager, and the strange syntax of build systems such as CMake are the causes that make us feel hesitant.
By developing a package manager and a build system, which have an intuitively easy-to-use interface like npm and Cargo, and make users be able to develop applications and libraries without being aware of CMake, developers will be able to focus on learning C++ without stumbling. I also plan to implement integration with many other build systems and package managers, so you should be able to switch seamlessly.
