I use it frequently for my Node.js development work, and in this post I will show you how easy it is start with C/C++ development using same IDE and have the similar experience. VS Code is a light-weight, open-source, free, and extensible IDE, and it is getting better every day. For others, they can check how the setup looks like and if they might wanna give it a try.

In this post, I will share with you a simple C/C++ development environment setup using VS Code. This will never end, and it shouldn’t because many times these arguments results in awesome tooling, which we are using today.

Whether you are a Lord of the Rings movie fan or not, you will agree that uniformity appeals to almost every one, and having a unified development experience is something developers strive and welcome all the time.įor a long time, development environment(s) have been tightly coupled with a particular technology e.g.
