I was doing the steps below to link CLion with my vcpkg.

Go to File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> CMake
Choose one profile, and then find "CMake Options".
Insert value to the option: -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=<path_to_vcpkg>/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake

Please let me know if there is any better way to do this.

Would very much like to have simple instructions on how to use vcpkg with clion.
I've tried following the instructions for vcpkg with cmake, but couldn't get it to work on clion
