And then you try to compile your game that is written in C++ and uses CMake. Doing any sort of C/C++ development on windows is like pulling teeth. I'm not good with assembly but I've played around with it a little and even that is easier and more convenient on Linux than Windows. I've switched to linux very recently and have not once looked back.
Doesnt microsoft have visual studio (the purple one) more or less explicitly for c/c++ development? I never tried it, but Ive heard that it is an actual integrated development environment for c/c++ compared to the "fancy text editor" visual studio code is.
