 If you want, you can install the compiled library to your system using `make install`. By default it will install the headers in `/usr/local/include/cjson` and the libraries in `/usr/local/lib`. But you can change this behavior by setting the `PREFIX` and `DESTDIR` variables: `make PREFIX=/usr DESTDIR=temp install`. And uninstall them with: `make PREFIX=/usr DESTDIR=temp uninstall`.
 
+#### Meson
+
+To make cjson work in a project using meson, the libcjson dependency has to be included:

+```meson
+project('c-json-example', 'c')
