About C/C++ Extension Pack

C/C++ Extension Pack

This is a collection of extensions I use when developing C/C++ code. I would be glad if you are interested in this pack and just give a try! 👍

❗️❗️❗️ before installation I suggest you read lines with ⚠️ tags first, where some requirements are mentioned.

🌟🌟🌟 你正为在VSC中配置C/C++开发环境而头疼?
I would be glad if my little tutorial could help you. A 中文版本 is also provided 😆

My tricks

Here are some tricks!😄

VSCode sometimes stucks when too many extensions are installed? Here are two tricks:

  1. Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) and select Developer: Open Process Explorer to see which extensions cost most. Then disable (just workspace) some extensions you don't need in current workspace.
  2. thinks disable extensions one by one too annoying? you can disable a group of extensions by simply disable a extension pack! ✌️ Another good news is that you can uninstall any extension included in the pack while this extension pack is still there🎊
  3. want to make your own extension pack? This may helps you👍

This pack includes

⚠️these extensions do not provide you with a compiler, you need one added to Path then everything works.

Contribute

If you find a extension really useful when developing python code and want to improve this extension, feel free to raise a issue. But please notice that issues using the extensions included in this pack will not be accepted in this extension pack's repository 😅.

Enjoy!
