It appears that the
Buildingsection on the proposed page is part of a "Hello world" tutorial.https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v12.x/docs/api/addons.html#addons_building
Does it make sense to add a new
Buildingsection on this page instead?https://nodejs.org/api/n-api.html
It could go after the
Usagesection.My plan is to create documentation at a fairly high-level, pretty much describing the available tools and when you'd want to use them. But then linking off to the various tools for the specifics.

I'm not sure on the policy for linking out to other sites. I think adding to https://nodejs.org/api/n-api.html to start does make sense.
