How to access header files after installing with vcpkg?

I'm trying to use ICU in a project in Visual Studio, which I am new to. The VS documentation encouraged me to use vcpkg, so I downloaded it. I then installed icu through vcpkg. I integrated vcpkg for my userspace.

I'm now able to include icu, but some classes aren't found. In this case I want to include normalizer2.h but none of the syntax I try works. How can I include the individual header files within the icu package?

A snippet to demonstrate:

UErrorCode uErr=U_ZERO_ERROR;
const icu:: Normalizer2* UNormalizer = Normalizer2::getNFKCCasefoldInstance(uErr);

Throws the following error:

error C2039: 'Normalizer2': is not a member of 'icu'

#include <unicode/normalizer2.h> should work if vcpkg is correctly set up. At least the file is installed into <vcpkgroot>/installed/<triplet>/include/unicode/normalizer2.h. Make sure <vcpkgroot>/installed/<triplet>/include/ is in your include paths (which it should if the integration is installed).

You might add /showIncludes as a compiler flag to see which include directories are searched.
