"Codelite ideal for php programming"
What do you like best about CodeLite?

What fascinates Codelite are its complements that provide a set of functions, such as autocomplete the code according to the language being edited, the color command underline and the online help, especially to work with the C language, that facilitates programming. Another of the tastes of the programming in this editor is that its interface is very simple and easy to use, you can configure it to use any language and its available tools in the work environment it presents. I love its portability, since I can install it in my house in Windows and in the office of work in Linux without any kind of problem Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeLite?

One of the things I do not like about Codelite is that every time I run the editor to work with it, I have to change the language from English to Spanish, because when the application is closed it does not save the last language I work with, and When I start it again, it comes with the default English language. In my case, I also work with Python and I had to install another development editor since codelite is ideal for working with C language and its derivatives, but it is not advisable to work with another language Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Use Codelite"

Codelite provide various code completions engines so that developers can get things done fast. The best part is that theres a free trial and an even better part is that when the free trial is over, Codelite is still free! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeLite?

Theres not much i dont like about this software. It is very convenient. Users can review a list of currently-running threads and switch between them using just a few clicks by using the program’s Threads view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Develop web applications with this light IDE"
What do you like best about CodeLite?

With CodeLite I write my code comfortably, since it is compatible with the most used web programming languages, I have created excellent applications in Node.Js, I like it because its interface is very simple and easy to use, I also get excellent results with its debugger and that helps me find errors easily, another advantage is that it is very light and I can install it in any operating system because it is multiplatform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeLite?

I have had problems of compatibility in the Windows operating system, since sometimes I have unexpected closures and in other computers it can not even be executed, nevertheless in linux I have not had problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple IDE for C++ development"
What do you like best about CodeLite?

I like the simplicity codelite provides. It's got all the necessary features you would look for in a C++ IDE.

It's got code autocompletion and multiple language support. Being able to run the code you write in the codelite eases the development process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeLite?

Codelite does not let automatically choose the language for you. It's kind of a hassle to have to do that everytime you open up the IDE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great IDE for editing, compiling and debugging C/C++ code."
What do you like best about CodeLite?

As someone that used to work with Visual Studio in the past, CodeLite on Linux feels very intuitive to me.

Editor is great, and does everything i expect it to do.

Setting build to run 'make' lets you easily get to build errors and solve them.

Debugger (uses gdb), works great, including watch, stack, threads, steps, and everything i expect it to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeLite?

Double clicking on a watch expression should be triggering the edit dialog. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good IDE, especially for Web Developer"
What do you like best about CodeLite?

I just trying using this software in Windows OS.

Easy to install, but I need to install a compiler to work with this and get better result in using this software.

By default it needs MinGW compiler.

CodeLite as a cross platform IDE, is specialized in C, C++, PHP and JavaScript.

This software also can be used in Linux/Ubuntu OS, Mac OS, and of course Windows OS.

For databases, this software supports SQLite, MySQL, and PostgreSQL.

I totally like the side pane, because it provides any aspect of development that I need.

Also there is SFTP pane, to make it easier to connect by terminal.

What I love is, in this IDE, there are already output pane and complete plugins available.

As example, there is Unit Test ++, and SFTP log, Git.

So can be said, basically all I need for my website development work is only this software.

CodeLite can cover a lot of task from several software that I usually used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeLite?

So far I have nothing to dislike.

Currently I'm still trying to adapt with this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"API security by code lite"
What do you like best about CodeLite?

Distil’s ability to determine whether automated browsers are being used is a big help in making blocking decisions. Distil’s ‘block organization’ feature makes it easy to thwart known competitors and unsavory web scrapers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CodeLite?

Quick start guides are bit complex for first time user. Quick start guides should use more pictures to clearly communicate the problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
