Actually they fixed most your gripes with the new vcpkg.json feature (manifests or whatever they call it). It’s now enough to have vcpkg.json and include https://github.com/build-cpp/vcpkg_template/blob/simplified-vscode/cmake/vcpkg.cmake before/after your project() call. Everything will be built in your build folder and nothing global anymore 🎉
