 ## Configure & Build
 
 when configuring libiio with cmake, there are a few optional settings that you can use to control the build.
+The recommendation is to leave things to the default.

 Which backends the library supports is dependent on the build system, but can be overridden.
 (If cmake finds libusb, it will use it, unless turned off manually)
