Visual Studio Code is designed to fracture
Its close in spirit to DRM. They want to ensure that if you are using their projects, it must be under their terms.
Many of their VS Code extensions[0] have license terms which /prohibit/ them from being used in editors that are not Microsoft's VS Code editor, and Microsoft can issue cease-and-desist for violation of this or use of their extension marketplace in alternative editors.
Microsoft has a pattern they follow where they publish repositories on GitHub to proclaim they are open source, while actually distributing proprietary binary blobs in them that are fundamental core parts of functionality to the codebase[2][3][4]

The C/C++ extension is open source with MIT license but the shipped extension binary contains MS proprietary binaries that is not as open [1]. I am not sure what will be the difference between using MS official build and compiling the source (there will be some for sure).

How to enable pretty printers?
According to this: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-cpptools/issues/3423 it seems to be at least somewhat possible to reuse natvis files from Visual Studio, but I have not tested that. Never really had the need to look at any non-vector container in the debugger.
