Hey everyone, I'm currently diving into C++ programming and I'm using Code::Blocks as my IDE. I'm wondering if it's sufficient for my learning needs, or if I should also consider using WSL2 for a better development experience. What do you think?

Honestly, Code::Blocks is okay for learning C++. Remember, the tool is just a means to help you learn the language itself.
Sure, Code::Blocks will do the job for now. Just keep in mind that it's not the best tool out there. Some say it's outdated and there might be better options to explore, especially since C++ is evolving.
I personally use Visual Studio Community 2026 for C and C++. It has much better support for those languages compared to Code::Blocks.

Got it! Just to confirm, you're talking about Visual Studio, not Visual Studio Code, right?
