VS CODE assistance(beginner)

I downloaded all tools and extensions, even took help from youtube to make my VS Code IDE to work for C++, but I guess nothing was good for it cuz at the end it didnt produce any results. When I go for debug gdb launch it starts loading which never ends to produce any thing.
Need some professional guidance with my VS Code setup...

VS Code is an IDE, it does not have an inbuilt compiler. You will not be getting output, because the C++ code you're writing is not being converted into machine level.
You need to install a C++ compiler like GNU GCC in order to get any output.
