That works until you need to support Visual Studio or Xcode. Then you either maintain their stuff manually too, or you get CMake to generate all three. I don’t love it but it solves the problem it’s meant to solve. The issue is people using it when they don’t need to.

I’m not familiar with either why can’t you use Make with VS or Xcode? Can you not set them up to have whatever build bind call Make ?
Xcode implies MacOS, you can use make there too, just beware that some commandline tools take different arguments on BSDs.
