Best IDE for C/C++ programming

Here is a list of some very good C/C++ IDEs. You should select the one which fits your needs. If you are a beginner then try your hands at TurboC++, otherwise take a look at these.

1) CLion

Platforms: Linux, Mac OS X, Windows
JetBrains, a well-known company has created this IDE for C/C++ developers.

Smart editor
Embedded terminal
Various languages and standards: C++11, libc++, boost, JavaScript, XML, HTML and CSS
Keyboard Shortcuts to help you with fast project creating
CMake support
Code analysis

Why it's a number one? Well, because it has a multi-platform support first of all and a has a lot of functions which will help us in developing.

2) Visual Studio

Platforms: Windows

IDE from Microsoft. The only minus about this IDE that it only works with Windows. This IDE is not only for C/C++ developers, but it also includes many popular languages in its list. If you are working with a team then you probably do need a Pro version minimum which is not free. But if you are working alone then you can use Express edition of IDE which is free.

3) Xcode

Platforms: Mac OS X

This IDE is the best choice for Mac users. Probably there are so many programmers who prefer to use a Mac. And again this IDE like the previous one (Visual Studio) is not only for C/C++ developers, there are many other popular languages supported. It is completely free to use. So you get pretty cool features to develop your program with C/C++.

4) Eclipse
