March 2025: Delivered dependency management modernization for webthing-cpp in microsoft/vcpkg by migrating from manual dependency checks to CMake's find_package for uSockets, libuv, and related components. Removed dependencies.diff and standardized configurations to rely on unofficial-uwebsockets and nlohmann_json_schema_validator, improving build reliability and maintainability. Updated webthing-cpp to 1.2.0 (commit be1c1702ff5b4519207dc58bff0d66367cca9e38). This change reduces maintenance burden, minimizes risk of broken builds due to drift in manual checks, and streamlines future dependency updates. Technologies demonstrated: CMake find_package, modern dependency management, cross-platform build stabilization.
