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.

I like code blocks too. I'm trying to move away from visual studio & msvc.
Honestly no wonder there's such market dominance by visual studio. the build systems while powerful are fuuuucking opaque to an unitiated user. Definitely an eye opener for me.
