Nuke.Cola comes with explicit support for some tools

XMake

Automatically download a specified XMake version bundle into the temporary .nuke/temp folder if needed. This is mostly used for managing C++ packages through XRepo.

There are extra utilities for parsing the output of the XRepo command so that can be used with other C++ build tools which may not have a good method for managing C++ dependencies (khm Unreal Engine khm).

CMake

Automatically download a specified CMake version inside the temporary .nuke/temp folder if needed, so we don't need to assume one installed on the system.

VCPKG

Automatically clone the VCPKG repository inside the .nuke/temp folder if needed. VCPKG can be used on its own, but it is included for somewhat ensuring the meta-package-management feature of XRepo.
