CMake

CMake is a family of tools designed to build, test and package software. CMake is used to control the software compilation process using simple platform and compiler independent configuration files. CMake generates native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice.

Pros

    GNU Automake

    GNU is an operating system that is free software-that is, it respects users' freedom. The development of GNU made it possible to use a computer without software that would trample your freedom.
