This is really exciting - as a Java/Python guy who recently made forays into C++, I was disappointed at the state of dependency management and the lack of standardization across build tools. So many projects use submodules instead of cleanly declared dependencies.

I hope that a project like this can motivate the C++ community to provide some more centralized support for creating shared libraries, managing third-party dependencies, and other areas where the language falls short today.
