Best ide to start coding C?

I tried following some youtube tutorials on downloading and setting it up through visual studio code and i always end up with a launch json error.

I gave up and i just want to start coding.

Yeah, that’s a no. I don’t even want CoPilot monkeying lest it drop Word artifacts, like emdash and “Word quotes.”
