C++ with Bazel

This project serves as a tiny template for anyone looking to build C++ projects with Bazel in 2024 without wanting to pull their hair out.

The beauty of Bazel is its reproducibility and platform independence. With this setup:

• All you need to do is install a tool called bazelisk (a lightweight wrapper for Bazel).
• Bazel will handle the rest, like downloading the appropriate C++ compiler and dependencies, ensuring everything works seamlessly on any platform.

Deps

On Mac: brew install bazelisk

On other platforms, look up how to install bazelisk.

Run

E.g, bazel run //:ranges_demo

C++ language server support

bazel run //:refresh_compile_commands

Format Bazel files

bazel run //:buildifier.fix
