+## Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler Support in CMake Tools for VS Code
+CMake Tools in VS Code does not detect Intel oneAPI compilers by default. This feature automates their detection and configuration for seamless integration.
+### Configuration Steps
+1. Ensure the following prerequisites are met:
+    - **Intel oneAPI Toolkits** is installed.
+    - A **workspace** is open in VS Code.
+    - **Microsoft CMake Tools** extension is installed.
+2. Press `Ctrl+, ( or File -> Preferences -> Settings )` to open the Settings.
+3. Navigate to **Extensions → CMake Tools**.
+4. Modify `.vscode/cmake-kits.json` to include Intel compilers.
+5. Open Command Palette (`Ctrl+Shift+P`), select **Intel oneAPI: Configure Intel oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler for CMake Tools**.
+6. Choose a **oneAPI environment script** before configuring `.vscode/cmake-kits.json`.
+7. A **toast notification** will prompt you to reload for changes to take effect.
+### Outcome
+CMake Tools will detect Intel compilers, simplifying setup and build execution.
