This is the API Style project directory template, which is designed for writing libraries intended to be consumed by other developers. Unlike end-user applications, the project structure of a library is part of its public interface and consequently the user experience. The goal this template has in mind is providing new projects with a good starting point that is easy to consume, extend, and maintain.
In contrast, the End-User Style project directory template focuses on producing standalone executables or tools where internal organization is more flexible. You can find this template on the End-User Style branch .
Note
Once you instruct CMake to configure the project, this README will be overwritten by the generated version!
You can modify the README by changing the template README.md.in file.
