"Best compiler for C, C++ till now and also other languages "
What do you like best about Code::Blocks?

C C++ programmers will get a greater advantage here as it provides many libraries and functions with these two languages. Any beginner with basic knowledge of C language can use this and become a hard coder at the end. Many libraries are inbuilt within the setup which is an advantage for a beginner to download and install them seperately. Easily the code can be debugged with proper highlighting where the error occurred. Automatic indentation at every new line makes the code looks cleaner. It is free to use and doesnt consume much RAM or memory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Code::Blocks?

Some programs get crashed and i need to restart the code blocks. If making some big project like using graphics library code blocks becomes slow which is bit frustating to a beginner. Same GUI since iam using this which makes bore of coding. For every simple code testing should open the software every time rather a terminal based best compared to this.

"one step to convert Learners to skilled Programmers"
What do you like best about Code::Blocks?

Here we have the best IDE for C programmers which is damn helpfull for beginners in programming and lightweight IDE for C++ as well. With many pre installed libraries are a plus point for beginners. Programmers can easily add libraries of their necessary and compile time and run time verifications for the program is easily catchable. Linkers and SDL is also much more usefull for effecient and expert programmers. Simple GUI which is available in both ubuntu and windows OS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Code::Blocks?

Coding in some software for simple program check is bit taunting becuse opening the software takes time and then running that program is much more time consumong compared to terminal programming facility provided in ubuntu OS. Hanging of software is caused somtimes. The same old GUI is bit boring for users as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- It is developed using C++ due to which all the plugins and packages and readily imported.

- Code Blocks is a beginners bitcoin who will experience a maximum advantage out of it since it is very easy to use and write a program.

- Codeblocks has a notable user interface and graphical design.

What do you dislike about Code::Blocks?

- For even small programs the loading time is more and sometimes it crashes for a very large programs.

- Since it is IDE based everything can be imported and beginners just use the plugins without even the basic knowledge of what package they are using.

- Its worthy to switch over other editors like vim, sublime if you are from a computer science background.

- Program crashing, running time, software hang is more compared to terminal programming provided by LINUX.

"A simple but powerful IDE"
What do you like best about Code::Blocks?

Installation of code-blocks is very simple and It's freeware ,open source, very simple to use. Not so heavyweight as Eclipse. It supports multiple compilers including GCC, Clang and Visual C++. It highlights the syntax and code folding. The debugger has full breakpoint support and finding the error is very simple. Opened files are organized into tabs. It comes with a GUI designer called wxSmit Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
