 # IDE integration
 
-Meson has exporters for Visual Studio and XCode, but writing a custom backend for every IDE out there is not a scalable approach. To solve this problem, Meson provides an API that makes it easy for any IDE or build tools to integrate Meson builds and provide an experience comparable to a solution native to the IDE.
