As a former student who tried to stay on top of the absurd logistics of making use of my premium license, it sucks. Once a year you have to dig up your old account credentials, and it’s always when you’re in the middle of a high stakes project. Worrying about licensing sucks, even when someone else is paying for it.

This is quite cool. Is only RubyMine left without community version?
Not that it was much good to begin with, but enshittification is coming

I’ve heard it’s one of the best (if you’re looking for a full IDE experience). I haven’t tried it yet but I am on the lookout to hear about what tools people like to use for c/c++ development. Do you have one that you prefer?
It may be true that there’s no better one. Which doesn’t mean that it’s good.
I have tried both clion and VSCode. I can’t think of many more IDEs other than Visual Studio (which I haven’t tried). I don’t think there’s many other options.
Clion is much faster than VSCode’s C/C++ extension. For example go to definition is instant while VSCode can take 10+ seconds each time, and it doesn’t cache results. However, that’s the only good thing I can say about Clion.
At work I use VSCode. Why? Because it works. CLion worked for like 6 months, and then it just refused to lead the cmake project, becoming absolutely useless.

It was already free for students before tho lol
And in fact, I have almost everything of the JetBrains library for free
