Why Are the Build, Test, and Run Options Grayed Out in NetBeans?

Hey everyone! I'm diving back into C++ since there aren't many server admin jobs available nearby, but I've noticed that in NetBeans, the options to build, test, and run my project are completely grayed out. There's no error message or anything, but I just can't select them. I'm using Linux Mint and downloaded NetBeans directly from the repository. I've tried searching online but haven't found a solution yet. Any ideas?

Have you installed a C++ compiler and made sure to configure NetBeans to use it? Sometimes you need to set things up manually. You can check out this quick start guide for help: https://netbeans.apache.org/tutorial/main/kb/docs/cnd/quickstart/

I thought the compiler would be included by default! I figured just activating C++ would set me up. Is that not the case?
