# Vcpkg <a href="#">![](https://devdiv.visualstudio.com/_apis/public/build/definitions/0bdbc590-a062-4c3f-b0f6-9383f67865ee/5261/badge)</a>

|
|
## Overview
|
|
Vcpkg helps you get C and C++ libraries on Windows. This tool and ecosystem are currently in a preview state; your involvement is vital to its success.
|
|
|
|
For short description of available commands, run `vcpkg help`.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start
|
|
Prerequisites:
|
|
- Windows 10, 8.1, or 7
|
|
- Visual Studio 2017 or Visual Studio 2015 Update 3
|
|
- Git
|
|
- *Optional: CMake 3.10.2*
|
|
|
|
Clone this repository, then run
|
|
```
|
|
C:\src\vcpkg> .\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
|
|
```
|
|
Then, to hook up user-wide integration, run (note: requires admin on first use)
|
|
```
|
|
C:\src\vcpkg> .\vcpkg integrate install
|
|
```
|
|
Install any packages with
|
|
```
|
|
C:\src\vcpkg> .\vcpkg install sdl2 curl
|
|
```
|
|
Finally, create a New Project (or open an existing one) in Visual Studio 2017 or 2015. All installed libraries are immediately ready to be `#include`'d and used in your project.
|
|
|
|
For CMake projects, simply include our toolchain file. See our [using a package](docs/examples/using-sqlite.md) example for the specifics.
|
|
|
|
## Tab-Completion / Auto-Completion
|
|
`Vcpkg` supports auto-completion of commands, package names, options etc. To enable tab-completion in Powershell, use
|
|
```
|
|
.\vcpkg integrate powershell
|
|
```
|
|
and restart Powershell.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
See the [documentation](docs/index.md) for specific walkthroughs, including [using a package](docs/examples/using-sqlite.md) and [adding a new package](docs/examples/packaging-zlib.md).
|
|
|
|
Our docs are now also available online at ReadTheDocs: <https://vcpkg.readthedocs.io/>!
