Installing CMake Tools for Visual Studio: A Step-by-Step Guide

Why Do You Need CMake Tools?

Before we dive into the steps, let’s quickly discuss why you might want to use CMake:

Cross-Platform Support: CMake allows you to manage builds for multiple platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux) with ease.

Easy Project Management: Handling complex build processes becomes much simpler with CMake.

Integration with Visual Studio: Using CMake with Visual Studio allows you to take advantage of IDE features like debugging and code navigation.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

Step 1: Open Visual Studio

Start by launching your Visual Studio. This should be the version you wish to add the CMake interoperability to (for example, Visual Studio Community 2019).

Step 2: Access the Tools Menu

Under the main menu, click on the Tools tab.

From the dropdown list, select Get Tools and Features.... This will direct you to the Visual Studio Installer.

Step 3: Modify Your Installation

In the Visual Studio Installer window, you will see a list of workloads. Locate the section labeled Desktop development with C+ + .

Ensure you check both:

C+ + CMake Tools

Step 4: Apply Changes

Once you have made your selections, look for the Modify button on the bottom right.

Click it to apply the changes and begin the installation of the selected components.

Step 5: Wait for Installation to Complete

Allow the installer to complete the process. This may take several minutes depending on your system and the components being installed.

Step 6: Verify Installation

After everything is installed, you can verify that CMake tools are available in your Visual Studio. Simply create or open a CMake project and check for any CMake specific features.
