I have nothing against IDEs, but I don’t love the VS Code plugin, because if you want anything to happen, you have have presets in your project, which aren’t set up for per-user configuration, and are usually checked into the project, so if you have any personal or machine-specific needs, you have to edit those presets, which is problematic for reasons noted elsewhere in this thread. You also have to set up a “kit,” whatever that is.

I have the same confusion.
Configuring VS code, which plugins recognize which “variables”, in which json files, what generator to use, etc., is quite confusing IMO.
