At this stage, I'm primarily looking for feedback if what I had done made sense and was a good solution to the problems I'm attempting to address. I'm outside of my wheelhouse. I don't dabble in the realm of graphics. I'm more of an embedded and kernel dev.

I've never used cmake directly either. I just used "make". I'm on Linux (Fedora 41) if that makes a difference. I'm not sure why it decided to invoke cmake under the covers, but it's a simple enough error of omission with the md->adoc rename that's trivial to fix.
