I agree and not at the same time. CMake Tools is an awesome extension, but C++ 
development in VS Code still feel second rate due to the fact, that the C++ 
language services extension (most notably the Microsoft extension) does not 
know about CMake Tools and one manually has to populate CppSettings.json file 
with include files for instance, as well as the actual location of the 
executables if one wishes to debug targets. All this info is available in the 
JSON generated by CMake Tools by invoking cmake in server mode, but the two 
extensions would have to meet in the middle. There are discussions about this 
on their respective Github issues trackers, but there is major radio silence 
from the MS dev team.

Did you see

?
Might have more potential with the noted CMake Server support than CMake 
generated IDE files.
