I'm actually considering a move to Linux, with MS pushing Win10 so hard these days. It's just unfortunate that there's no equivalently powerful IDE + debugger combo on Linux.
I thought Microsoft made a Linux version of Visual Studio. Though it's much less advance, and I'm not sure it supports C++ development it's still a step in the right direction.
Looks like it supports C++ code:
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/overview I don't know if it comes with a compiler. You might need GCC and G++ for that, but I doubt that's a big problem.
It's mostly the Debugger part that's the problem. GDB is slow and difficult to use. Anything based on it inherits the slowness.
I can't apply for it, right? so I have to use the beta version
intellij, the same ide for Java, is available as community edition with limited features.
From what I understand of that site, they expect one member of the team to apply for the license and share it with the rest of the team. Or am I wrong? Has anyone applied in Cuberite's name?
I think I'll stay with qtcreator for the time being
I personally didn't find either clion that useful. I've gone back to a terminal editor. Context sensitive c++ completion is great.
there is the possibility of one requesting licences for many persons but I think it's better if everyone core-team apply for themselves
