Please note that we are still discussing about (re)learning programming, C++ in this case.Īlso, don't forget that VSC is still an editor. (Another alternative was to use the native Microsoft tools - but these seems to be too big and/or complicated - although the debugging is the best.) I tried MinGW / MSYS / Cygwin, and I thought that, since Microsoft was offering Linux natively in the latest editions of Windows 10, to use WLS (Windows Subsystem for Linux). ![]() VSC seemed to satisfy my requirements, but implied the installation of a C++ compiler & other tools needed to compile and run the programs. I was looking for some simple IDE and I was not very pleased with CodeBlocks or NetBeans. Some time ago (see previous gist) I began to explore Visual Studio Code with the intent to re-learn C++.
