Has anyone used GLFW3 with ubuntu 16.04 using CLion IDE? I’m confused with this CMakelist. I’ve successfully created a project using Makefile and compiled a small project using make command.

I’m planning to extend the project and I’m stuck at the starting stage itself. I can’t even get to create a window just because I’m not able to config the CMakefile.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks
