C++ 20 module example that uses CMake to generate project for Visual Studio and other compilers

Space Traveler

Sample project that utilizes C++ 20 modules with CMake for Visual Studio.
Currently, this project is simply creating a Galaxy of planets.

Building this Project

In order to build you will need to download CMake (at least 3.29.3) to build the solution.

Below is the following command I used to generate the solution on Windows (note for Linux/Unix, use "Unix Makefiles"):

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" ..

Implementation notes

Modules are defined within .ixx files as required by Visual Studio (otherwise Intellisense will not work). Also, we set the CMAKE_CXX_SCAN_FOR_MODULES flag.
