How to build the powertoys project using vscode?
I run vscode . from the developer command prompt. Then, from a vscode terminal prompt I run a CMake command suggested by AI.
cmake -S . -B build
The error returned is: CMake Error: The source directory "C:/downloads/microsoft/PowerToys" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.
Ran dotnet build from the PowerToys folder in vscode. Build failed with 117 errors.
Ran msbuild peek.vcxproj /p:configuration=debug from the folder that contains the peek.vcxproj file.

In general, how to go about building individual projects, c++ and c#, within the powertoys repo using vscode?
