CMake is a hell of a software, period.
If you would like an alternative approach, there exists a tool called bpt. It’s a new build tool and I find it a bit more intuitive then Cmake (and makefiles all together). It’s is still a beta tool FYI.

A different approach to building C++ projects
Like many C++ devs I hacked around in cmake for years, but not really understanding what I was doing or how to structure cmake projects. This was made worse as newer ways of doing things came into being.

It really clarified things for me, but also avoids going too much into detail. You will definitely need more info as you go along, but you can look those things up in the docs. This presentation does a good job at showing the core essentials that you can build your knowledge on later.
