Instructions

after the project is cloned, run git submodule update --init --recursive to pull submodules. This is stuff like abseil and other maps are git submodules that don't get downloaded automatically.

To build, just run mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -G "<Build System>" and then whatever command the build system uses. For example, with unix maketools:

cmake -G "Unix makefiles" make

But if you still got the same config as the one we all used for parkmanne, you should have vscode + cmaketools plugin. In which case, just press build.

Dependencies

Install boost. (https://www.boost.org/) should just be pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-boost in the msys2 shell. If you still have the same install as the parkmanne project, you already have this installed. If you don't for some reason, see command above. If you don't have the same setup anymore, ask me. Stefan, it is apt install libboost-all-dev on ubuntu if i remember correctly. pacman -S boost-libs on manjaro.
We need it for boost::unordered, and i have no easy way to include it in the project.

Also, this is only tested on linux. It should work on windows. I remember it working on windows, but I recently did a fresh install on windows after getting an SSD and I'm having trouble configuring clang to work for projects I was able to compile in the past. Assume it doesnt and compile on linux.

Also, make sure your compiler supports C++17. That should be the latest versions all major compilers (clang 5+, gcc 7+, msvc 19.14+ (Visual studio 2017+)) We're at VS2019, clang 10 and gcc 9 now, so this shouldn't be an issue if you still got the parkmanne setup.
