Ogre3D project template is ready to be used (make fork and pull requests to make it usable) in experimental projects to learn Ogre3D, featuring:

• Oriented to Ogre3D 1.9, 1.10 (for Ogre3D 2.1 look here)
• OIS Mouse and Keyboard
• Basic camera controller (striped from OgreBites)
• No GUI/HUD/SDK Tray

Change project name in CMakeLists.txt and use cmake-gui.

For example you want to create ogre-myapp1, rough steps are following:

git clone https://github.com/rafis/ogre-sample.git
cp -ar ogre-sample ogre-myapp1
cd ogre-myapp1
sed -i 's/ogre-sample/ogre-myapp1/g' CMakeLists.txt
cd ..
mkdir ogre-myapp1-bin
cd ogre-myapp1-bin
cmake ../ogre-myapp1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug"
make
cd ogre-myapp1/bin
./ogre-myapp1
