Non-Modern (but still awesome) CMake

This is an archive of pre-modern CMake scripts, modules, examples and others

Your contributions are highly welcome (first see CONTRIBUTING.md).

This file contains links worth taking a look, but they use obsolete practices which are considered non-modern - like not using target_*-based dependency management - see #16 and #42 for more details.
