Through Conan-CMake

1. Go to the conan cmake-wrapper github repo: https://github.com/conan-io/cmake-conan
2. Use git submodule to include the cmake-wrapper inside your project:

git submodule add https://github.com/conan-io/cmake-conan.git cmake-conan

3. Run cmake:

cmake -DCMAKE_PROJECT_TOP_LEVEL_INCLUDES=cmake-conan/conan_provider.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -GNinja -B=build .

It seems that this command only succeeds when running inside the project root directory.
