C/C++ in Visual Studio Code for Beginners

In this video I go over adding C/C++ support to Visual Studio Code and showing how you can have intellisense support for C/C++ as well as that you can easily debug C/C++ applications directly in VS Code.

Never stop making these even though with a small fan base it's really informative to new students like me.... Ps; We all start somewhere

In 2022 this still works amazing. Thank you so much it took my hours to try and find out how to install G++ and GBD!

I was trying to get this set up for several hours, watching other videos, before finding yours. I first watched your overview of VS Code vs VS 2019. I was about to give up and just use VS 2019 because the setup was automagic. But I really like VS Code, and decided to look in your uploads specifically for this tutorial and here it was! BTW, I tried the MS tutorial and was caught by some of the gotchas you mentioned. -- Thank you also for the quick explanations of the tutorial semantics, and how it differs from the actual syntax needed. -- Very grateful and yes I already subscribed!

when I paste the hello world file in the explorer like you did at 10:16, the highlight colors for 'vector', <string> and the 'cout' don't appear and just remain white. I've tried looking into color themes and other things, but it just doesn't happen. Any idea why this may be?

I'm not new at all to c+/c++ coding, but I find Visual Studio Code so aggravating. I want to edit the tasks.json file to build a multifile project the way I want but there is absolutely no documentation. I read the side it constantly says "use IntelliSense to learn more". WTF! HOW? Hovering over shit tells me next to nothing about anything. The documentation just rattles on about everything except what I want to know.

I'm late to the party here but I ran into this issue with environment variables and VScode yesterday. If you're opening workspaces or folders from the windows start screen, where it lists recent workspaces/folders, it won't load new environment variables. You have to open the folder or workspace directly from the file explorer or PowerShell. I was being lazy and it bit me in the ass. Took me longer then I care to admit to figure that out.

Also, great vid dude. Excellent tutorial.

I don't understand why it's made so unintuitive. How about a button saying: "Enable C++".

[TomBrooks-hjpq]

Thanks for the help man those json files were confusing at first.

[nielspaulin]

YOU ARE FANTASTIC. Save me a LOT of time !

This was the first video wherein I got the hang of it.

[jasoncooper]

So there I was, wondering when I'd see another great video from you. Then BOOM, there is was, a notification 🔔 hit me up!

Super glad I subscribed and hit the 🔔 icon.

Thanks for your clear instruction. I was able to configure VS Code using MiniGW. One thing I can't get done is to find the input terminal, for example when you use the cin >> command and ask for the user input. VS Code says the program is running and waiting for input. But I don't see any panel for input. So I force stop the program. Can you help with this? Thanks!
