+# GSoC'21 First Evaluation Report
+
+In the first phase of GSoC 2021 @ The FOSSology Project, I have
+completed the desired milestone. As of now, FOSSology can be installed
+completely via CMake and most of the components are working fine in
+initial testing.
+
+## Updates
+
+In the first phase of GSoC 2021 @ The FOSSology Project, I have
+completed the desired milestone. As of now, FOSSology can be installed
+completely via CMake and most of the components are working fine in
+initial testing.
+
+List of tasks completed
+
+- Added CMake build configurations for all the C/C++ agents for
+  executables, libraries, and coverages
+- Added CMake install configuration for all C/C++ and PHP agents as well
+  as extra components
+- Reworked the shell scripts and generated source files to make them
+  more compatible with CMake as well as better in terms of overall
+  compatibility with the latest tools.
+
+## Improvements
+
+- The new CMake build architecture is much more flexible to changes as
+  compared to hard-coded Makefiles.
+- CMake generated configurations support parallel build by default, this
+  has led to significant improvement in build time. CMake generated
+  configuration can now build the whole project within 2 mins or even
+  faster on more powerful CPUs (Both Ninja and Makefiles with the same
+  number of parallel processes) compared to 4-5 minutes previously.
+  *(These results are averaged from initial testing of new build
+  architecture)*
+- CMake supports out-source builds by default, which means the source
+  folders are not touched/modified while building, all build files and
+  residuals get their separate folder and the source tree can be cleaned
+  easily.
+- Developers can now opt for a long list of generators to build
+  FOSSology e.g Makefiles, Ninja as per their needs.
+
+## How to test
+
+Instructions to test the new Build system is in [this](https://github.com/avinal/fossology/wiki#test-the-new-system-only-gcc-with-make-and-ninja-tested-for-now) wiki.
+
+## Known Issues
+
+- There may be a permission issue with some generated sources while
+  building. This can be bypassed for now by running
+  `sudo chmod +x <filename>` command.
+- Coverage builds may fail.
+
+## Postponed Tasks
+
+- configuration for tests are skipped for now
+
+## Work in Progress
+
+- Currently, I am working on packaging the FOSSology with CMake.
