"A Great C/C++ Coding Software"
What do you like best about Code::Blocks?

I like that it is beginner friendly, especially for coding in general. It detects errors very well and shows where you went wrong in the code. That alone is something convenient and useful. I also like that it uses multiple compilers, which is also very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Code::Blocks?

Sometimes the build and run option gets disabled, and the only way to fix it is to exit and log back into the software, which is really annoying, especially when I'm working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Only IDE I recommened for Beginner's Coding"
What do you like best about Code::Blocks?

It's best suited for beginners as it is light weighted IDE. I would recommend this who is a newbie to coding and don't have access to high-end specification devices. It has Syntax Highlighter and suggestion features which make it much easier to work with. Overall it's the best IDE that I can recommend for students. Its very helpful in learning and debugging feature make it much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Code::Blocks?

It's not much use for high-end coders. when it comes to high-level programming it does not support many languages which I feel is a disadvantage for the people who have gotten used to it. It could have much more libraries that could be useful for developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile and User Friendly IDE for C and C++"
What do you like best about Code::Blocks?

The best thing I like about Code Blocks is it is light software and not too heavy that might cause system to hang. It is really an User Friendly IDE where we can learn, code and develop applications using C, C++ and scripting languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Code::Blocks?

I didnt have much dislike abour code blocks. May be if I wish to say one thing, there must be more libraries present in the IDE. Updates can be given to the software in regular intervals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Code blocks review"
What do you like best about Code::Blocks?

I like that code blocks allows you to do all you need to do to a program. From construction of the program to compiling the program, the process is easy. It also shows the syntax errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Code::Blocks?

I can't think of anything I dislike about code blocks. All of your files are stored in a created folder and the program comes with an embedded compiler with code languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good C/C++ IDE for beginners"
What do you like best about Code::Blocks?

Using Code blocks is essential part of every programmer who starting out with learning programming language in C/C++. The fact that how basic it is to write code and to operate on it makes this IDE stand out from its compititors. Few things which I liked about code blocks are-

1) Great UX/UI for beginners.

2) Compiling and running code is easy.

3) It is an open source, cross platform IDE.

4) Points out red signal at which line the code contains error.

5) Build messages are clear to read. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Code::Blocks?

Having an experience of working in Code Blocks as a frequent user, I have my likes and dislike regarding this IDE. Few things which I did not like considering the facct that it is beginner friendly are-

1) Taskbar icons are scattered while launching the IDE.

2) Tedious installation process.

3) Does not comes with gcc installed, you have to install seperatly.

4) No default dark theme available.

5) Blurry letters makes it harder to read.

6) Not proper syntax colour differntiation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
