We should mention the following three options:
Wonder if the "developer" options should also be listed:

The others I'm not entirely sure about - they are generally more advanced/developer options that people typically won't care about, and they are already somewhat documented by the cmake code itself with descriptions that also show in the cmake gui. There are also plenty more that aren't documented here that you haven't mentioned so it could be a bit of a rabbit hole. Perhaps worth clarifying what the intention of this tutorial is, as "building from source" covers a very wide range of use-cases. Could just be and end user wanting to quickly build SFML so they can use it (which I get the impression was the original intention), could be a contributor wanting to debug and test some new feature, Could be a package manager maintainer wanting to produce a selection of builds, all of which have very different requirements |

I think it's fine to not mention the other options for now and maybe expand on other topics later on.
