 After this, clangd should not give you errors on every included header.
 
+### Toolchain
+
+C++ can be somewhat error-prone, so in order to reduce the possibility of
+certain bugs, cmake toolchain options are provided that build the project

+You can build a sanitized version like this:

+```
+cd build
+cmake .. --toolchain ../toolchain/sanitize.cmake
