facebook/folly ? reverse-engineered prompt

Reverse engineered prompt

I want to use the Facebook Folly C++ library for a new project. I've read that it's a collection of high-performance C++20 components that Facebook uses internally for their own stuff, and I want to try it out.

The build process looks a little complicated, so can you handle all of that for me? Please clone the latest version from GitHub and follow their instructions to build it as a static library. It looks like they have a special python script called getdeps.py that manages dependencies like Boost and googletest, which seems like the best approach. The goal is to have a simple "hello world" C++ project set up that successfully includes a Folly header like folly/FBString.h and compiles correctly, so I know the library is linked and ready to use.

Are you gonna build this?
