TL;DR: No, there should be no difference. Longer answer:
Believe it or not there is a third way! We also support building with Bazel <https://bazel.build/>. Makefile and Bazel are both official supported. CMake exists, and we maintain it, but there is no obligation that it will stay up to date. So I would suggest sticking to Bazel or Make.
