-# Advanced build customization
-
-## Including additionnals cmake files
-
-### Machine and system custom cmake files
-
-Advanced tuning is possible using addionnals cmake files that are included
-automatically from some specifics locations. They are included in that order:
-
-- Project CMake files normaly located in _<project-root-path>/conf.d/app-templates/cmake/cmake.d_
-- Home CMake files located in _$HOME/.config/app-templates/cmake.d_
-- System CMake files located in _/etc/app-templates/cmake.d_
-
-CMake files has to be named using the following convention: `XX-common*.cmake`
-or `XX-${PROJECT_NAME}*.cmake`, where `XX` are numbers, `*` file name
-(ie. `99-common-my_customs.cmake`).
-
-> **NOTE** You need to specify after numbers that indicate include order, to
-which project that file applies, if it applies to all project then use keyword
-`common`.
-
-So, saying that you should be aware that every normal cmake variables used at
-project level could be overwrited by home or system located cmake files if
-variables got the same name. Exceptions are cached variables set using
-**CACHE** keyword:
-
-Example:
-
-```cmake
-set(VARIABLE_NAME 'value string random' CACHE STRING 'docstring')
-```
-
-### OS custom cmake files
-
-This is meant to personalize the project depending on the OS your are using.
-At the end of config.cmake, common.cmake will include lot of cmake file to
-customize project build depending on your plateform. It will detect your OS
-deducing it from file _/etc/os-release_ now as default in almost all Linux
-distribution.
-
-So you can use the value of field **ID_LIKE** or **ID** if the
-first one doesn't exists and add a cmake file for that distribution in your
-_conf.d/cmake/_ directory or relatively to your _app-templates_ submodule path
-_app-templates/../cmake/_
-
-Those files has to be named use the following scheme _XX-${OSRELEASE}*.cmake_
-where _XX_ are numbers, ${OSRELEASE} the **ID_LIKE** or **ID** field from
-_/etc/os-release_ file. You can also define default OS configuration file
-to use as fallback is none specific OS configuration is available using the
-scheme _XX-default*.cmake_. Then is you need by example a module that isn't
-named the same in one distro only, you only has to define a specific file to
-handle that case then for all the other case put the configuration in the
-default file.
-
-## Include customs templated scripts
-
-As well as for additionnals cmake files you can include your own templated
-scripts that will be passed to cmake command `configure_file`.
-
-Just create your own script to the following directories:
-
-- Home location in _$HOME/.config/app-templates/scripts_
-- System location in _/etc/app-templates/scripts_
-
-Scripts only needs to use the extension `.in` to be parsed and configured by
-CMake command.
