    Have you tried intellij? I'm just curious, cause I don't hate eclipse, but I prefer intellij so much more

    @iam13islucky I did, eclipse is much more simple.

    @AlgoRythm I guess. Depends on the project I guess, cause for college I use intellij at home, eclipse at school. Much easier to debug and more customized for what I want.

    @KnightsOfCode @iam13islucky Also, I am a student, so I can get full edition free as well :)

    @KnightsOfCode I once messaged the support because of that and IIRC it was free for students and FOSS projects. Not 100% sure though

    I like Eclipse, but everyone here already knows that because I can't shut the fuck up about it.

    @KnightsOfCode I'm currently using the student license too but I've already set aside hundred bucks to purchase the full IntelliJ license after I graduate. I think a good IDE is worth investing to save myself from all sorts of frustration. Not sure about C/C++, but for language like Java is certainly the best out there IMO.

    I hate the lack of a workspace. IntelliJ was also harder to set up so it could actually compile projects, I'm trying it out right now. But I honestly don't see what's so much better about it

    In my experience, the best IDE for C is no IDE at all, just a compiler, an editor with highlighting and a good shell

    On windows, though, I found VS quite enjoyable when you use the empty project configuration, disable SDL checks and compile as C
