Is there any compiler for newbies?

[kellanphil]

Why isn't there any good IDE for C? I tried using Vs-code it's too complicated for beginners to setup and see results I tried CodeBlocks too but it's same as Vs-code,and that being said there are many online compilers like GDB etc that do the work perfectly, then why not something for a pc/desktop?

Hi kellanphil,

Did you download and try Pelles C? It's one of the best IDEs :

Hi kellanphil,


You will find Pelle C very usable and this forum has very helpful people when you need it.
Also many code examples are available to get you started.

There is a bit of an issue right now with Win 24H2 but if you are running anything earlier it will be smooth.
