It is unclear how to add cpp-libp2p to a new project #212
Description
Hi, building cpp-libp2p from source has worked and all tests have successfully passed, however it is difficult for me to actually add libp2p to a project. The section "Adding cpp-libp2p to the project" is not clear to mel:
1.You put a github link to hunter-simple (btw this link might break at any point in time). From there it still is not clear to me how to add hunter to a project that is not officially supported by hunter. How exactly do we tell hunter to use the existing dependencies to add libp2p to our projects.
- Then at the end it says "Example of adding cpp-libp2p to other project can be found here and here", linking to other blobs. These examples did not help me due to lacking context. Please write down a full working example so make it more beginner friendly.
Thanks!

How to add cpp-libp2p into an already working project?

Absolute nightmare to actually get this working in a project, the only way i've managed but is a cludge is to include the cpp-libp2p directory into my own cmakelists.txt file, but i hate it with a passion, i think i will have to seriously look at forking this project, removing all the dependency needs and make it a simple vcpkg package.
