CMake is a collection of open source tools designed to help you build, test and package new software projects. The utility comes with a user-friendly user interface and helps you generate build files, create libraries, build executables, and so on.

While working with CMake, you get to compile projects using independent configuration files. However, you must start by providing both the source code and output location before advancing to the configuration panel.

CMake offers you the possibility to use default native compilers, to select particular native compilers that you want to employ, to provide the toolchain file for the cross-compiling, or to manually configure the cross-compiling options.

The utility allows you to setup the target operating system and version, the processor, and the C, C++, and Fortran compilers. You can provide the target root, and choose the program or library mode.

Moreover, you get to specify which generator you want to use for the current project: Unix Makefiles, Ninja, Xcode, CodeBlocks, CodeLite, Eclipse, KDevelop, Kate, or Sublime Text.

CMake is able to build and test source code that comes with multiple folders and also needs various libraries to function properly. The utility relies on the CMakeLists.txt files that are placed in the source code directories and include all the commands to build the project.

Note that CMake comes with a collection of predefined commands that will be included in the CMakeLists.txt files, but you also get the option to create your own custom commands.

CMake is a powerful software solution for compiling, testing and packaging source code that greatly streamlines the procedure by allowing you to make use of an extensive set of tools via an user-friendly interface.
