Original Summary

Hey everyone, I've been working on [flint]( https://github.com/mainak55512/flint ), a lightweight C/C++ build system and package manager. One of the biggest challenges with C/C++ package management is handling legacy projects that don't have standardized build manifests. To solve this, flint uses a simple composition.json format to define how a library should be built (source directories, includes, compiler flags, defines, and system library links). Native flint libraries can be fetched automatically via flint add, but for legacy C/C++ libraries, we maintain a central index repo called flint-cherts. How you can help / contribute: - Pick your favorite C/C++ library (e.g., SQLite, zlib, cJSON, raylib, etc.). - Follow our flint-cherts README guide to write a composition.json for it. - Submit a PR! Writing a composition only takes ~5–10 minutes per library, and it makes those libraries instantly buildable for anyone using flint.
