   • manually build projects under ~/ZF
2. create your own cmake project (CMakeLists.txt)
3. have these lines in your CMakeLists.txt:

   add_compile_options("$<$<CONFIG:DEBUG>:-DDEBUG>")

4. specify include path and lib search path in your CMakeLists.txt:

   include_directories(path_to_ZFFramework/_release/cmake/all/include)
   add_library(your_required_ZF_lib_name SHARED IMPORTED)
   set_target_properties(your_required_ZF_lib_name PROPERTIES IMPORTED_LOCATION path_to_ZFFramework/_release/cmake/all/lib/your_required_ZF_lib_name.dll)

5. copy all res and libs to your product output or proper location according to your platform
   • for example

     ~/
         YourApp.exe
         ZFCore.dll
         zfres/

6. create cpp files in your project and follow the Tutorial to code with ZFFramework, enjoy
