Good. C++ is discouraging. It combines huge complexity with readily available footguns, and the prevailing attitude is that all developers must be able to write perfect code with a full understanding of the language. Otherwise any security holes or runtime crashes are their fault.
You can do it using whatever you want. I hope I don't discourage you from discovering C++. You might enjoy it, you might not, who cares. Go do it and make up your own opinion.
