Project Setup: CLion

Cloning

Start by cloning the repo onto your machine. I found that using CLion built in vcs can lead to some problems with checkout branch so if you use windows GitHub desktop is recommended or use the CLI. From there CLion takes care of the rest.

Dealing with JetBrains

I also recommend going to the .git for the file and adding .idea/ to the end to ignore all of the auto generated files made by CLion

Cmake

If you cannot in the top right change the configuration to COS214_FinalProject then restart CLion and make sure it loads the config

Format on Save

Go to File>Settings>Tools>Actions on save and enable format on save
