Terminal

When you select the Run in Terminal check box and run an application or the
Open Terminal button to open a terminal, the default terminal opens in the
Terminal output view. It supports multiple tabs, as well as various
shells, colors, and fonts.

To use an external terminal, deselect the Use internal terminal check box in

Copilot

The Copilot plugin (disabled by default) integrates
GitHub Copilot, which uses OpenAI to
suggest code in the Edit mode.

To set Copilot preferences, select Preferences > Copilot.

(Documentation)

vcpkg

The experimental vcpkg plugin integrates the vcpgk
package manager for downloading and managing libraries.

Select the vcpkg installation location in Preferences > CMake > Vcpkg > Path.

To create a new vcpkg.json package manifest file, select File > New File > vcpkg. The file is automatically added to the CMakeLists.txt file for the
project.

Edit manifest files in the manifest editor. To search for packages to add to the
file, select the Search Package button on the manifest editor toolbar.
