VSCode reports issue with WxWidgets in Linux and MacOS - visual-studio-code

Question

I can't get VS Code to play nice with WxWidgets on Linux or MacOS. It seems like it's trying to default to MSW and gives an error (detailed below)
The specific question is about VSCode (autocomplete, don't give false errors) with WxWidgets. In command prompt, compiling any Wx project works perfect.
Steps:
VS Code is installed
-Create folder for project. Let's call it /src/hello
-Create a hello.cpp file with code from: https://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.0/overview_helloworld.html
-Download WxWidgets into /src/hello/deps
-Going through steps to compile and install Wx https://docs.wxwidgets.org/trunk/plat_osx_install.html
-Check my Intellisense includes to include ${workspaceFolder}/**
-Now, in the command prompt, if I run:
g++ hello.cpp 'wx-config --cxxflags --libs' -o hello
./hello runs perfect!
But in VSCode is unusable because it's giving me this error:
cannot open source file "../../../lib/vc_lib/msw/wx/setup.h" (dependency of "wx/wxprec.h")
I'm pretty sure msw is for windows?
I feel like I've tried everything:
-Downloaded and Git version of Wx (Yeah, I know it's the same. But people on the wx forums recommended trying...)
-Use the Homebrew WxWidgets install.
-Using the sample projects included with Wx.
-Using the Hello World
-Same issues in Linux and MacOS.
-Updating Intellisense's includes every way you can think of.
-Using the output of wxconfig and putting the cxxflags and lib include output into Intellisense.
Is anyone able to use VS Code on Linux or MacOS with the Hello World Wx example? If so what are your intellisense settings?
My properties:
I'd rather not use Cmake for this.
