Add vcpkg installation instructions #523

Closed Adela0814 closed 1 year ago

Adela0814 commented 1 year ago

fbthriftis available as a port in vcpkg, a C++ library manager that simplifies installation for fbthriftand other project dependencies. Documenting the install process here will help users get started by providing a single set of commands to build fbthrift, ready to be included in their projects.

We also test whether our library ports build in various configurations (dynamic, static) on various platforms (OSX, Linux, Windows: x86, x64, UWP, ARM) to keep a wide coverage for users.

I'm a maintainer for vcpkg, and here is what the port script looks like. We try to keep the library maintained as close as possible to the original library.

Thanks for the PR but it looks like instructions for installing any package in vcpkg are pretty much the same so I don't think it adds much value to copy them here.
