==

Needy is tool that aims to make C++ library dependencies as magical as possible. Dependencies are declared in a file known as the "needs file", usually by simply adding a source URI. Then Needy will download and build those dependencies for you.

For example, by creating a *needs.yaml* file in your project that looks like this:

```yaml

libraries:

    catch:

        repository: [email protected]:philsquared/Catch.git

        commit: v1.3.0

```

You can then use a simple command invocation (`needy satisfy`) to download and build [Catch](https://github.com/philsquared/Catch) for your target platforms. Once integrated with your build system, adding, updating, or modifying dependencies in any way becomes a trivial matter.

Needy is extremely capable, so be sure to check out the examples directory or [the documentation](https://ccbrown.github.com/needy) to see some more things you can do.
