C++ Development with Visual Studio Code
summary
Shows VS Code configured as a lightweight editor or full IDE using the C++ extension, CMake Tools extension, and vcpkg to build and debug a cross‑platform CMake project (SuperTux) locally and over SSH/Containers/WSL. Demonstrates integrating vcpkg with CMake, installing from a catalog of ~1,300 libraries, and preview of manifest, binary caching, private‑package and versioning support. Promises upcoming Linux ARM/ARM64 IntelliSense and remote debugging; demo actually configures, builds, and debugs with GCC/GDB on a Linux VM.
