62 When building with west installed, the Zephyr build system will use it to set
63 :ref:`ZEPHYR_MODULES <important-build-vars>`.

78 etc. is just a call to the corresponding :ref:`west command
79 <west-build-flash-debug>`. For example, ``ninja flash`` calls ``west
80 flash``\ [#wbninja]_. If you don't have west installed on your system, running
82 any :ref:`flash-debug-host-tools` which work for your board (and which those
83 west commands wrap).
86 install west on your system using ``pip``, it is possible to do so
87 by manually creating a :term:`west workspace`:
89 .. code-block:: console
92    git clone https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/west.git .west/west
94 Then create a file :file:`.west/config` with the following contents:
96 .. code-block:: none
104 After that, and in order for ``ninja`` to be able to invoke ``west``
105 to flash and debug, you must specify the west directory. This can be
107 :file:`zephyrproject/.west/west` before running CMake to set up a
114    Note that ``west build`` invokes ``ninja``, among other
115    tools. There's no recursive invocation of either ``west`` or
116    ``ninja`` involved by default, however, as ``west build`` does not
119    line like ``west build -t flash``. In that case, west is run twice:
120    once for ``west build``, and in a subprocess, again for ``west
124    ``west flash`` is run.
