c++ good IDE that are not so big?
I'm looking for good compilers that aren't too big, except for Visual Studio. Visual Studio is way too big for that.

Hello folks, I got a “new old” gaming PC because it should be enough for my games. This one has installed: Ryzen 3800XT RTX 3060Ti 32GB G.Skill RAM 2666Mhz It's not the newest, but it's sufficient for my needs. However, I've noticed that it performs worse than it should in games. According to websites and…
I have this OpenAI app. There's Chat GPT 3.5, which is free. And there's Chat GPT 4 or Plus. It costs €22. I'd really like to try it, but €22 is a pretty ridiculous price. I heard that Chat GPT 5 is in the works. Could it be that Chat GPT 4 will also be…
Hello everyone! I'd like to delete a cell in my Google Sheets spreadsheet using a formula. (I need the formula because I want to do it using a checkbox.) Does anyone know a formula for this, or do I have to keep doing it manually?
Hey guys, I wrote a small program to get some input, but it's not working properly. Do you have any idea what's wrong? It must have something to do with the start method and the corresponding button.
An algorithm that is in O(n · log(n)) is always in O(n^3). right or wrong? According to the sample solution it is correct, but I somehow don't understand why.
I don’t know how big they are, but alternative IDEs for C++ would be CLion or QT Creator.
I think you’re not looking for compilers, but IDE. And you can also use a text editor. As a good alternative, I can recommend Visual Studio Code. It doesn’t cost anything, it’s not that big. The dependencies to compile the program, you still need and in Visual Studio Code you have to set up something manually.
Yes, IDE. Thank you.
It should be noted that VS Code is not an IDE, but an editor.
You can naturally make mimimi 😅. What it is about is clear when you read the question. It’s done here. Sometimes you just have to hold something back and not make mimimi at every bit.
Yeah, that definitely. That’s right. Nevertheless, a valuable alternative if you look for one.
I’m not saying that VSCode is bad. But the range of functions is clearly different. You should know that.
So I myself use here and there Visual Studio Code. For example, for Rust or Java. I’ve never had any problems with debugging. And yet, that’s mimimi
It’s not mimimi. An IDE like CLion has significantly better debugging options. I think that’s quite relevant.
The compiler itself is not really big. The IDE, the development environment around it, is great!
Also a very extensive C compiler like GCC is just 64 megabytes large. You can also use the compiler without IDE. Simply create all files yourself with some text editor and then run the GCC over it to compile.
Of course, this also goes with the compiler from the Visual Studio, you can also leave the IDE away and then it is only a few megabytes large.
If the 64MB for a C compiler is still too large, then you can use the language BF, here the compiler is only 98 bytes big! Little one really doesn’t go!
thank you
Fun side. Without a good IDE, it’s not fun programming. Smaller “Hello World” projects can be done, but if it becomes more extensive, you lose the overview without IDE.
Small, modular but unfortunately not easy to use without certain expertise is “Eclipse”. This is only 360 megabytes in the basic version for C/C++.

But if you want more than Syntax Highlighting and an editor optimized for programming, then you should just grab something bigger. This doesn’t have to be the Visual Studio, which can also be Microsoft Code. The latter also uses the GCC, which is also very powerful and optimises the programs very strongly.
All 3 mentioned things need much less space on the SSD than Visual Studio. And not so inflated.
Mac users first install the Xcode Command line Tools. These include the GCC compilers. Then you can install the Qt-Creator via Homebrew. At the terminal brew install –cask qt-creator enter. This is the open source license. Download the Qt Installer Framework for Mac here: https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt-installer-framework/4.6.1/QtInstallerFramework-macOS-x64-4.6.1.dmg Thus, its fully compiled program can be packed into a DMG package.
Linux users install the GCC Compiler and the Qt-Creator via the package management. The Qt Installer Framework is not available for Linux, but is created there with the means of the respective Distro DEB or RPM packages.
With this option you can program C/C++ programs without having to change the source code. Platform independence is increasingly important in today’s time.
The platform-independent Qt library is written in C++.
Hey,
for C++ development with a lightweight IDE you can try “Code:Blocks” or “Dev-C++”. Both are less resource-intensive than Visual Studio, but still provide good support for C++ development, including compilers and debuggers. CodeLite is another option that offers a modern user interface and support for various compilers.
Greetings,

Visual Studio is an IDE (integrated development environment) and a compiler is software that makes written code “readable” for the PC.
You can also use the same compiler without Visual Studio and write everything in the Windows editor.
I recommend Code:Blocks. IDE is also an IDE with a compiler for c++ (names gcc (GNU C Compiler).
