I think this integration looks very promising.

At least on Linux, I've tried many IDE solutions... Eclipse, Netbeans, CLion, Code Blocks, Anjuta, KDevelop... from all of them I've found more the most success with CLion. But my use case doesn't really go beyond what this list of features are.

... except for the build system. No mention of CMake in the article. I think CMake support is a key feature.

Have you tried Qt Creator? I think that is pretty decent.

Qt Creator feels more lightweight and very responsive than CLion. But also feels a little bit too close with Qt.

Initially I didn't like Qt at first because the licensing legalese seemed too complicated for me to understand.

I also felt that KDE and Qt was some sort of technical shotgun wedding that could blow up at any moment.

My main gripe with Qt creator is that I find it very ugly. But thats an opinion obviously

I think I saw an issue or something, can't find the link anymore. If I recall correctly they were saying that build tool support is on the roadmap.
