How to Build a Module

Question

I wish to build a C++ module I wish to build it separately from any other project All tutorials I've found build a module along w/ a Hello World executable That makes no sense Modules are intended to be consumed by any number of projects So it seems they should be built separately Also once the module is built where does it reside How do I find it How does one import it to a project I assume one can not merely write import MyModule; as how can the compiler find it Thank You Kindly
