Using CMake and managing dependencies
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 🎉
