hey all, I was going through the webpage and noticed that in the [build tools section](https://fortran-lang.org/learn/building_programs/) there’s no mention nor examples of the FPM here. I have a [WIP PR](https://github.com/fortran-lang/webpage/pull/503) for an intro to cmake and I could bundle both cmake and FPM in one single merge, otherwise happy to open a second one if this sounds like a good idea.

I think you are right: although [fpm](https://fpm.fortran-lang.org/tutorial/hello-fpm.html) has its own website, I see it is not mentioned in the fortran-lang webpage. Definitely worth adding a link/some brief explanation to, imho.
