Description
In order to use the free certificate, the build process has to be fully automated and integrated with SignPath.io, to ensure that the resulting binary results directly from the source code checked into the repository.
This would mean a basic CI/CD implementation. SignPath recommends AppVeyor.
As for how to setup AppVeyor with C/C++: https://www.appveyor.com/docs/lang/cpp/

Research direction
Start with the SignPath open-source guidance and AppVeyor's C/C++ documentation linked in the issue, then inspect the repository's existing build process. Done means the build is automated through CI/CD, integrated with SignPath, and produces a free code-signed binary directly from the repository source.
