They didn't. Things like Conan and vcpkg exist for almost a decade by now.

Also, on any OS under the sun except Windows, the system's package manager is C's and C++'s package manager. These C package managers called deb or rpm are older than half the people posting here.

This, also my goal wasn't necessarily to replace existing tools, but to fill a gap. "If it isn't configured in TOML it isn't worth using" is something that I've heard, whether or not you agree. As for system packages, version conflicts do happen. My goal wasn't to replace existing build systems, or replace existing package managers, but to combine them. It isn't very good in its current state, but by combining two essential tools into one, I hopefully make it easier.
