Who this book is forThis book is for software engineers and build system maintainers working with C or C++ who want to optimize their workflow using CMake. It's also valuable for those looking to enhance their understanding of structuring and managing CMake projects efficiently. Basic knowledge of C++ and general programming is recommended to fully grasp the examples and techniques covered in the book.
Dominik Berner is a software engineer, blogger, and conference speaker with 20 years of professional software development under his belt. He codes mainly in C++ and has worked on many software projects, from writing bleeding-edge software for surgical simulators in a startup, to maintaining large legacy platforms for large corporations in the MedTech industry, to creating IoT solutions and writing pilot software for drones. He believes that well-designed and maintained build environments are one of the key elements to enable teams to write software efficiently and excel at creating quality software. When he is not writing code, he occasionally writes articles for his blog or speaks at conferences about software development. Mustafa Kemal Gilor is an experienced professional working in performance-critical software development for the telecommunication and defense industries and open-source software. His expertise is in high-performance and scalable software design, network technologies, DevOps, and software architecture. His interest in computers emerged very early on in his childhood. He learned programming to hack MMORPG games at around the age of 12, and he has been writing software ever since. His favorite programming language is C++, and he enjoys doing framework design and system programming. He is also a strong advocate of CMake; he has maintained many codebases and ported many legacy projects to CMake throughout his career.
