Introduction to CMake

bookInstalling CMake

To install CMake, use the package manager available for your operating system. On Linux, run the appropriate script for your distribution, for example install_cmake_linux.sh for Ubuntu or Debian. On macOS, execute install_cmake_macos.sh if you use Homebrew. On Windows, open PowerShell as administrator and run install_cmake_windows.ps1 if Chocolatey is installed. These scripts automatically download and install CMake for you.

If a package manager is not available or you need a specific version, you can download the official CMake binaries manually and extract them. This ensures you always have the required version of CMake to build your projects successfully.

If a package manager is not available, or you need a specific CMake version, you can download the official binary from the CMake website.

Keeping CMake updated is important, as newer versions provide better support for modern C projects and features. Many open source projects require recent versions of CMake to configure and build correctly.
