What is Ninja?

Ninja is a small build system with a focus on speed. It's designed to be a backend for higher-level build systems like CMake or Meson. These higher-level systems generate Ninja build files, which Ninja then uses to orchestrate the actual compilation and linking process very quickly and efficiently. Its primary goal is to perform builds as quickly as possible, by carefully managing dependencies and parallelizing tasks.
