Limitations

If this is not used along with clangd_client, compile_commands.json has to be added to project's root directory manually.
This plugin requires compiler supporting c++20 as dependencies require it.
wxsmith files are not updated as I'm not familiar with wxsmith, also not much comfortable with UI designing.
