Ways to generate crash dumps for crash handling?

Hi there!
I was interested in generating crash minidumps cross platform for debugging-- I've found them to be a useful tool for debugging. I know you can use SEH on Windows, but that's exclusive to windows, and cannot be mixed with C++ exception handling. Is there a way to write an exception handler that can grab what the state of memory looked like, as well as the call stack in order to generate a crash report/crash dump? I know there's also like google breakpad/crashpad but it seemed like I'd need to add in chromium to my project, and there's also Sentry, but I wanted to see what other options I have.
