## What it is
The source index of package recipes for ConanCenter, the central package repository for the Conan C/C++ package manager. It includes a CI system that automatically builds Conan packages from recipes submitted via pull requests.

## Use cases
- find conan recipes for c++ libraries
- install c++ dependencies with conan
- contribute a new package recipe to conan center
- build conan packages for a c++ library
- browse available conan center packages
- report a broken conan package

## When to choose
- you use Conan and need recipes for open-source C/C++ libraries
- you want to publish or fix a recipe on ConanCenter
- you need a central, CI-verified source of C++ package recipes

## When to avoid
- you use a different C++ package manager like vcpkg or CMake FetchContent exclusively
- you need a private package registry rather than a public index
- you are locked to the frozen legacy Conan 1.x remote

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: package-manager, build-tool, ci-cd, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools
