When you configure cmake did you point it to your compiled SFML?

The repo cmakefile is set up with set(SFML_DIR "lib/SFML-2.5.1/lib/cmake/SFML") however I changed it to point to where SFML is on my own system set(C:\Program Files (x86)\SFML\lib\cmake\SFML")

That's the compiled version?

#

I believe so yes, that was the output directory everything was placed in after I ran mingw32-make install for SFML

#

These are the only files in that directory. I'm not sure exactly which files the linker is trying to find in this path set by the set(SFML_DIR %PATH%) directive.

my cmakelists file looks like this

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.22)
project(sorting-visualizer)

set(SFML_DIR "C:/Program Files (x86)/SFML/lib/cmake/SFML")


find_package(SFML COMPONENTS graphics window REQUIRED)

add_executable(sorting-visualizer src/main.cpp src/Sortable.cpp src/SortAlgorithms.cpp src/SortController.cpp src/Utils.cpp)
