CMake
Open SourceCMake is an open-source, cross-platform family of tools designed to build, test, and package software. It uses a compiler-independent build system generator, simplifying the compilation process across various environments and programming languages. CMake manages the intricacies of building software projects by generating native build tool files like Makefiles, Visual Studio projects, and Xcode projects from simple textual descriptions. It's widely adopted for large, complex projects due to its flexibility and extensive platform support.
