Yeah, the resulting executables there are going to end up in the build directory, like `./build/src/settings/gnome-break-timer-settings`. But they rely on various things being installed to particular system directories, so you'll probably want to install it with:

    $ ninja -C build install

That installs to /usr/local by default, and it should appear in the application launcher pretty soon after running that command. (You can also execute gnome-break-timer-settings from the terminal).

If you'd like, you can change the install prefix like this:

    $ meson configure build --prefix=/usr

And ninja does a pretty good job uninstalling things:

    $ ninja -C build uninstall
