Using C++ in Visual Studio Community 2017 on Mac?

Question

I installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 on my Mac recently, hoping to use it to program in C++. It appeared to install correctly, no errors occurred, but it seems to be missing support for C++. It will only allow me to make projects using C# and F#; I don't see C++ anywhere.

Searching around, many people suggest opening up the Visual Studio Installer and add "C++ Tools" to VS. However, when I open up the visual studio installer, I only see the necessary packages to develop in Android, IOS, .NET, MacOS, and Xamarin.

Where is C++? Do I need to configure visual studio some other way to be able to use it for C++?
