Issues getting local environment running in VSCode and Visual Studio 2022
I'm a windows user trying to contribute on an github issue, but I've run into a few blockers. Using my IDE of choice, VSCode, I couldn't complete the build step. I ended up following the docs and trying Visual Studio 2022, which completed the build step with 0 friction. My main blocker with Visual Studio 2022 is that when I attempt to open the Deno repo folder, it freezes, then crashes. Broadly speaking, I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue with Visual Studio 2022? I'd also be interested in hearing if any other windows users have been able to contribute with VSCode, as that would be preferential for me to work in. The error I'm getting in VSCode on running cargo build -vv is as follows: 
--- stderr
  thread 'main' panicked at '
  failed to execute command: program not found
  is `cmake` not installed?
