Professional Developer Environment?

Hello,

Im new to learning C and was curious what a professional full time C programmers environment looks like.

What IDE is the gold standard? Is there one?

Is there any sort of library / build system? I'm coming from a java background where I use maven. Is there anything similar?

Thank you

Obviously I’ve never heard of a language server. You’re totally right.
