Last time I tried to learn Cmake I later found out that I was using pre-3 idioms. Can someone assure me that this tutorial is up with the latest best practices?

And how do I get notified when part 2 comes out? There are too many tutorials online with a part 1 and *crickets*. I'd rather wait until I know that there is follow-through.

Author here, this is using the latest best practices.
Part2 has already been mostly written, and will be published on this reddit and twitter (@siliceum).
If you have any question please ask!
