A small network library written for use in C++ applications.

Features

• WebSocketClient: WebSocket client.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• CMake (version >= 3.15)
• Compiler with C++17 support, i.e. MSVC, GCC, Clang

Installing

This library uses CPM.cmake to manage dependencies. It is an amazing package manager for CMake projects and allows us to install the entire library using the following commands:

  git clone https://www.github.com/xminent/net
  cd net
  cmake -S . -B build
  cmake --build build --target install

From there you can simply integrate it into your CMake project like so:

    find_package(net REQUIRED)
    target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE net::net)
