CMake generators

CMake generators are tools that convert a project's build instructions into specific files needed to compile software on different systems and environments. Think of them as translators, turning high-level build configurations into the detailed, system-specific instructions required by various build systems like Makefiles or Visual Studio projects. This allows developers to generate appropriate build files seamlessly across platforms, ensuring consistent and efficient software compilation. Different generators are tailored for different development environments, enabling cross-platform flexibility and simplifying the build process.
