How does one set up the Visual Studio Code compiler/debugger to GCC?

I am programming in C in Visual Studio Code, but I can't compile, as VSC only offers three compilers built in - Node.js, C# Mono, and Extension development. After a little bit of digging I came across the Visual Studio Marketplace. This seemed like the right sort of thing, but only four uncommon languages were there.

I can only assume that C debugging support is built in, I just can't find it or I am going the wrong way about doing it. I attempted to create a new launch.json (the manifest that seems to hold the compiling/debugging settings for each file) and manually entering the GCC binaries that I have, but that didn't end up working. I'm currently stuck manually compiling the C source file I am working on through command prompt.

Would really help if someone could point me in the right direction on what to do.

tl;dr - Help from anyone debugging C in Visual Studio Code

Windows 8, if that matters

Cheers!
