Abstract
To begin developing in C++, you need a text editor and a C++ compiler. You can get both at the same time by installing an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that includes support for C++. A good choice is Microsoft's Visual Studio Community Edition, which is a free version of Visual Studio that is available from Microsoft’s website. The C++ compiler that comes with this IDE has good support for the C++17 standard and includes many features of C++20 as of the 2019 version. If you are running the Visual Studio installer on Windows, make sure to select the “Desktop development with C++” workload to enable development in C++.
