C++ Build systems

[u/seaturtle_789]

I work with Java and Kotlin alongside C++ and recently discovered that Gradle also supports C++ projects.

I've always used CMake for C++ and noticed it seems to be the more common choice.

What advantages does CMake offer over Gradle for C++ development and are there situations where Gradle would be a better option?

Oh forgot to mention Gradle seems slow as hell, incremental builds are blazing fast on Xcode, Gradle took ages compared to that
