Yes! I started using it ~8 months ago and fell in love with its simplicity. Hunter aims to be a full package manager, so it strives to build a project and all of its depedendencies recursively. This is fundamentally different than just adding one external project and ignoring the depedencies (what ExternalProject_Add does). The downside is this forces Hunter to maintain many forks of original repos just to keep track of the dependency information. Meanwhile, Hunter basically guarantees rebuilds only when necessary and caches all library builds locally in the ~/.hunter directory. It really really simplifies the whole dependency management of a CMake project.
