Are you at least using an extension similar to this in your vscode?

Yeah; that was part of my original problem. I had a few c++ plugins installed and it got confusing what was doing what. So I removed them all and figured out which ones I needed and how to use it. So keeping it simple. C/c++ Compile Run, and c/c++ from Microsoft for the code hinting. Better syntax for the colours and that’s it.
Try to keep it lean, and only add when needed
When the build process gets complicated you can use https://cmake.org/
You're learning C++ for bitcoin core?
That too. I would like to know, and at least be able to, understand the code of the software I’m saying is halal lol 😂.

😉
Plus, I would like to build things that can benefit the ummah as a whole in ways that may be specific to us.
Thanks for the link. I actually have it installed in VSCode, but disabled it so I could focus on the hard work of getting to know the inner workings of C the hard way lol
For building things, please don't build it with C++ 🙏
I think only Luke Dash Jr does this
lol 😂
You really don’t like C++ 😜
Well, so far I’ve learnt Python and bash this year, and have now to learn basic C++ and swift. So let’s see where this path takes me. But I do want to make some software for some hardware , and I assume C++ is really good for efficiency when dealing with small hardware with limited resources. I know you might suggest Rust 😂. Let me think about rust.
C++ was the first language I learnt and did a good deal of development using it.
You can say I've been traumatized 🤣
Rust on the other hand can achieve the same efficiency as C++ but safer and with more pleasurable experience.
I heard it was a rough experience as well?! But I guess moving from C++ to Rust was an easy transition as opposed to not knowing C and going straight to Rust?
It uses a different paradigm, especially the tough stuff in C/C++ aren't there in Rust.
Learning any imperative language will provide the same background whether it's python or C. Also, learning some functional programming previously also helped since Rust uses a lot of that paradigm.
Hmm 🤔
That’s interesting. I’ll maybe give it a try o after this cycle.
Thanks for that perspective
I saw this and thought you would appreciate the humour lol
This is hilarious 😂
