I know little about gradle and have only just started exploring it, so this is just a question out of curiosity.

It’s supposedly a language agnostic dependency manager and builder, yet it seems to have only found its niche in Java. C/C++ projects could definitely do with dependency resolution…

    Are vcpkg and conan widespread in your experience? Mine has still been majorly “works on my machine with unnamed debian version and unrestricted library version”, which still breaks like 90% of the time.

      I know a bunch of larger C++ apps that use vcpkg for cross-platform (Windows/macOS/Linux) builds of their dependencies and it seems to work pretty well

      I worked on a couple commercial C++ applications that used vcpkg. It’s not as convenient as nuget, cargo or npm but it think it is a massive improvement over manually hunting for dependencies.
