Current tgbot-cpp requires Visual Studio 2022 with the Desktop C++ workload, CMake, Ninja, Make and Conan 2. The exact installation commands are in the Windows section of the repository README; run the Make targets from Git Bash.

Build and install the library:

make install INSTALL_PREFIX=build/install

In the bot project, use CMake targets instead of adding .lib files manually:

find_package(TgBot CONFIG REQUIRED)
add_executable(your_bot main.cpp)
target_link_libraries(your_bot PRIVATE TgBot::TgBot)

Configure the consumer with the same Conan-generated toolchain and add the tgbot-cpp install prefix to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH. An alternative is to add tgbot-cpp as a Git submodule and use add_subdirectory; the repository contains a complete echobot-submodule example.
