CMake Generator

A CMake generator is a tool that helps translate project configuration files into specific build instructions for different development environments. Think of it as a translator that takes a high-level description of a software project and produces the necessary files to compile and build the software on various platforms, like Windows, Linux, or macOS. This allows developers to write code once and generate appropriate build instructions regardless of the operating system or build system used, streamlining the development process and ensuring consistency across different environments.
