+                <p>Using CMake is documented on the <a href="http://llvm.org/docs/CMake.html">Building LLVM with CMake</a>
+                   page. Building LLDB is possible using one of the following generators:
+                </p>
+                <ul>
+                  <li> Ninja </li>
+                  <li> Unix Makefiles </li>
+                </ul>
+                <h3>Using CMake + Ninja</h3>
+                <p>Ninja is the fastest way to build LLDB! In order to use ninja, you need to have recent versions of CMake and
+                   ninja on your system. To build using ninja:
+                </p>
+                <code>
+                  <br>> cmake -C .. -G Ninja
+                  <br>> ninja lldb
+                  <br>> ninja check-lldb
+                </code>
+                <h3>Using CMake + Unix Makefiles</h3>
+                <p>If you do not have Ninja, you can still use CMake to generate GNU Makefiles that build LLDB:</p>
+                <code>
+                  <br>> cmake -C ..
+                  <br>> make lldb
+                  <br>> make check-lldb
+                </code>
+                <h2>To build with configure and GNU Make</h2>
                 <p>If you are using clang:</p>
                 <code>
                   <br>> $llvm/configure --enable-cxx11
