Disqus

Today setting Disqus comments for posts was a 10-minute job. While I was looking through the jekyll/minima page, part about the Disqus comment section caught my eye. After three lines of code and a pull request, it was done; as you can also see at the bottom of the page right now.

CMake Tutorial

For some time I was looking at CMake tutorial videos. At the start of this week I decided it would be better and faster to use CMake’s official tutorial. It was an interactive tutorial in which you were given a folder with the files that had necessary code templates. Through the instructions from the official tutorial site, one was expected to write the necessary code parts.

This tutorial has twelve steps from start to completion. Throughout this twelve steps one would learn everything from how to make a basic CMake project to adding libraries to your projects to packaging and installing your CMake projects.

While completing this tutorial the thing I was most intrigued about was Step 6: Adding Support for a Testing Dashboard. The reason for this was that using CTest for testing my code was already very interesting to me. Submitting this test’s results to CDash and seeing these results and the results from other people, who were doing this part of the tutorial as well, was really interesting.
