libs/openFrameworksCompiled/project/CMake builds the openFrameworks core and apps on macOS, iOS, tvOS, Emscripten, Linux (linux64, linuxaarch64, linuxarmv7l, linuxarmv6l), Visual Studio and MSYS2, mirroring the makefiles and IDE projects: the same sources, defines, flags and third-party libraries per platform, apps built into bin/, and the core in libs/openFrameworksCompiled/lib/<platform> with the names the existing builds use. Android keeps its own CMake for now. - openFrameworks.cmake: entry point for apps and the core project - CMakeLists.txt: the core library project - OFCore.cmake: core sources, third-party libs, the openFrameworks and openFrameworks::deps targets; apps link the prebuilt core, or build it first if it isn't there (OF_BUILD_CORE=ON forces that) - OFAddons.cmake: addons from their folders and addon_config.mk like the makefiles, or from explicit lists (of_target_addon_files, for the Project Generator) - OFApp.cmake: of_add_app() - platform/*.cmake: per platform excludes, defines, flags, libraries and app output (.app bundles with Info.plist and icon, bin/em/<app> for Emscripten, xcframeworks and bin/data in the bundle on iOS / tvOS) scripts/templates/cmake/CMakeLists.txt is the app template; generated CMakeLists.txt in examples are ignored like the Makefiles.
PROJECT_EMSCRIPTEN_WASM (32 / 64), PROJECT_EMSCRIPTEN_TOTAL_MEMORY, PROJECT_EMSCRIPTEN_EMBIND_AOT and PROJECT_EMSCRIPTEN_TEMPLATE, as in a project's config.make, so the Project Generator writes the same setting for both. wasm64 builds the core into lib/emscripten/WASM64 like the makefiles; EMSCRIPTEN_MEMORY64 still selects 64.

A CMake build for the openFrameworks core and apps on every desktop, web and Apple platform, built the same way as Android's: a core project, and an app template that links it. Next, the Project Generator can write
CMakeLists.txtprojects.Draft: Windows (Visual Studio, MSYS2) is written but not yet built; a Windows test run is next.
Usage
Copy
scripts/templates/cmake/CMakeLists.txtinto a project:cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release cmake --build buildsrc/, addons fromaddons.make, orof_add_app(myApp ADDONS ofxGui ofxOsc).bin/, named<app>(Release) or<app>_debug(Debug).libs/openFrameworksCompiled/lib/<platform>. If it isn't there for the configuration being built, it's built first and written there for the next app.-DOF_BUILD_CORE=ONalways rebuilds it.Per-platform commands, options and the PG integration are in

Known:
opencvExampleon macOS fails to link, with undefinedkleidicv::symbols. The make build fails identically: apothecary's macOS OpenCV xcframework is missing KleidiCV.Differences from the makefiles
libs/*/includeroots are added, as in the Xcode and VS projects. The makefiles also add every subfolder, and on iOS that letsglm/include/glm/simdshadow the SDK's<simd/…>headers. Addons keep the makefiles' recursive includes.OF_USE_DAWN/OF_USE_ANGLEare set.lib/macos/openFrameworks.arather than make'slib/osx/libopenFrameworks.a.Android keeps its own CMake; moving it onto this system is a follow-up.
