I agree totally. No one else has ever been able to make a debugger as good as Visual Studio. That's why I do all my core development work on Visual Studio, and only use XCode / code blocks for testing on Mac/Linux.

ugh, QtCreator is so much better especially than Xcode, and not even worth comparing to Code::Blocks
but what if you aren't using Qt?
QtCreator is a generic C/C++ IDE, built with Qt. (and since it has language server support nowadays it looks like it's useable for rust, etc). It has a profiling UI, valgrind support, etc etc.
It's also pretty decent for embedded!

Sometimes I feel they should rebrand it, because many people are blocked by the Qt name.

I better check it out then. Thanks.
