What’s CMake?
System for configuring C/C++ projects. Independent of:
Platform
IDE/Editor
Compiler
Generates native makefiles and workspaces
Some of its major features
Open source
Simplicity of scripting language
Modules for finding/configuring software
Create custom targets/commands
“Out-of-Source” builds
Cross compiling
Integrated testing & packaging (CTest & CPack)

Why to use CMake?
Do not depend on specific platform, IDE or compiler.
Many independent builds for each project.
Easy to tune specific-platform stuff.
Easy integration with other applications like Doxygen.
Console and Graphical applications.
