CMake has quite extensive documentation: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/

I think this is the case 😊 We're also gradually improving the documentation of 
CMake macros that Qt provides, see 
https://codereview.qt-project.org/q/topic:%22cmake_transition%22 (reviews 
welcome btw).

Now there will still be CMake macros & functions that are only used when 
building Qt itself (-> are internal). I don't think it makes sense yet to 
document them, because they're still in flux. But once things stabilize it 
would be IMO a good move to at least provide overview documentation.
