Comments and Reviews
I do not work for JetBrains, yet I love you sooo so much. the soft is intuitive, has many features that makes it easier on you, especially that it uses external tools to do its work like CMake ! it just gets out of your way ! the UI is set to a minimum yet the it DOES A LOT OF WORK !!!
I love it. The documentation feature is a life changer. It has CMake support. If you're a college student you can get a free license (not for commercial use). It just works. It implements clang-tidy right in the editor which is amazing.
It smarter than others IDE. I think Clion is the best for starter / newbie.
