    It's easier to list what is not wrong about CMake. The only positive thing about CMake is that it works once you spend days or weeks ripping your hair out trying to configure it. cmake-init is a perfect example of what is wrong with it. Over 400 commits, lots of files to properly start a project. No other language does that, because it is unspeakably bad.
