[question] Add a few case studies to the docs

Open rconde01 opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I think it would be pretty useful to do one or more case studies on how (real) large projects are using conan in their day-to-day operations. Topics like:

  • Remote setup
  • How to
    • Add a new package
    • Update a new package
    • Lock packages
    • Level of redundancy
    • etc.
  • Team roles (one person in charge of conan stuff or...)

I think this will help people with ideas, start discussions on the "proper" way to do this, and motivate features to better serve the community.

More ideas

  • handling custom, CCI, and vendored CCI recipes
  • symbols strategy

Hi @rconde01

Thanks for the suggestion! We're working hard on the new Conan 2.0 documentation and adding real examples here: https://github.com/conan-io/examples2 using the new generators, build helpers, lockfiles, etc. that are linked to the documentation. I'm sure we could most likely add more examples covering all the hot topics, and, for sure, any contribution there would be more than welcome.

Anyway, let me transfer this issue to the conan-docs repo because it's purely related.
