To link AUI to your project, use the following CMake script:
# Standard routine
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.16)
project(aui_app)
# Tip: in a production project don't use branch name, use a specific name tag (i.e. v1.1.1),
# but for a sandbox project branch name is perfectly enough
set(AUI_VERSION master)
# Use AUI.Boot
