conan: Search for locally installed packages.
$ conan search ${package}
try on your machine

The command conan search ${package} is used in the Conan package manager, a tool for managing and distributing C and C++ libraries.

In this command, ${package} is a placeholder for the name of the package you want to search for. You would replace ${package} with the actual name of the package you want to search for.

When you run this command, it searches for packages matching the specified name in the Conan package index. The package index is a centralized repository where Conan packages are hosted. It contains information about available packages, their versions, and other metadata.

The conan search command retrieves and displays information about packages that match the specified name. This can include the package name, version, license, URL, and other details. This command helps you find packages that you can use in your projects or provides information about the available options for a particular package.
