I saw this further down in the thread: https://github.com/casey/just
Looks like a version of make optimized for running commands instead of builds.

Make is a language for making build systems. CMake is a build system that uses Make written by people who haven't read the manual. Anybody touching build systems at all needs to do themselves a huge favor: read the GNU Make manual to be able to write a Makefile to support a small project. This isn't difficult, and gives you wonderful perspective about what build systems are great and which aren't. CMake is good if you need to support many different unixes and xcode and visual studio. If you don't, then cmake gives you lots of pain for no benefit.
Make is simple and good-enough for most cases. I use this: https://github.com/dkogan/mrbuild
But it's not special and there are lots like it. And they are all infinitely better than cmake

Came here to post the same. The answer for How to build software? is Meson[1] for C and C++ and also other languages. Works well on Windows and Mac, too.
I’ve written a small Makefile to learn the basic and backgrounds. Make is fine. But the next high-level would have been Autotools, which is an intimidating and weird set of tools. Most new stuff written in C/C++ use now Meson and it feels sane.
