This is the definitely the best implementation of a C++ code visualization i've seen yet, kudos to the developers for this

That said, its a bit sad that this is in C++, which I think is an atrocious language for coding beginners to learn. Sure, a lot of people here might have learned C++ to start with (me included), but there are much, much better alternatives available today (pretty much any modern interpreted language for example).

I've noticed that people who are new to coding get the biggest boost to learn more about programming if they are in an environment where they can cause some kind of interesting visual output. In this regard, many languages that have good visual tooling integration (like Javascript's integration with HTML, python integrating with a GUI toolkit like pygame) really kicks it out of the park when it comes to motivating newcomers.

If the devs are reading this, could I suggest adding a 2D graphical component to this tool? unfortunately I can't think of any good, easy-to-use graphics APIs in C++ (a la the canvas API in JavaScript), but SFML and CairoMM come to mind.
