CMake

CMake provides powerful build management capabilities that adapt to your workflow. It supports both in-place builds (where outputs reside with sources) and out-of-place builds (keeping build artifacts separate), giving developers flexibility in organizing their projects. The system manages compiler flags, preprocessor definitions, and library dependencies automatically. This compiler-agnostic approach means your build process remains consistent whether using GCC, Clang, MSVC, or other toolchains, significantly reducing platform migration efforts.
