Cabin is an opinionated build and package manager for conventional C/C++ projects.
It uses a declarative manifest and a predictable project model to reduce build configuration boilerplate. Cabin is inspired by Cargo where the workflow maps cleanly, but it deliberately diverges where C and C++ require different semantics.
Cabin is best suited for projects that want a simple, explicit, package-oriented workflow rather than a fully programmable build system.
Cabin is still pre-1.0. Some features may be incomplete, experimental, or subject to redesign.
Read "Installation" from Cabin Docs.
See INSTALL.md.
Runnable Cabin example projects live in examples/. Each one is a real Cabin package
you can build and run directly; see examples/README.md for the index.
