Getting good at: C++ | #1 - Installing Code::Blocks

Introduction

Hello m8s. If you're reading this blog, then that means you suck @ c++ and you want to git gud. Not to worry, daddys got a really spicy meme for you magnificent scrubs.

1 - Installing Code::Blocks

DISCLAIMER: If you've already installed Code::Blocks prior to reading this post than why are you even here. Go watch thenewboston or something.

This is the hardest part, so read carefully:

Step 1: Go to codeblocks.org

Step 2: Click on "Downloads"

Step 3: Select "Download the binary release"

Step 4: Select "Windows XP / Vista..."

NOTE: You can also install this on Ubuntu/Debian/OpenSUSE/Fedora/RedHat, but it's at least 100 times harder.

Step 5: Where you see "codeblocks-16.01mingw-setup.exe", select "sourceforge.net". (You could use FossHub, but like no one uses FossHub so...)

Step 6 (Note that this is like the hardest part so read carefully): Once it's finished, select "Run"

NOTE: This may vary for other browsers.

Step 7: It should show up with an install wizard. Click next at least 100 times. You don't have to worry about losing plugins because it already comes with them pre-selected.

Step 8: This one's a little different. Click "Install".

Step 9: wait.

Step 10: Code::Blocks will ask you if you would like to run it now. If you want to git gud fast, click yes. If you want to keep reading your Steven Universe fanfiction for like 2 hours, click no.

Step 11: run it.

That's all I'm gonna post today, so make sure to read the next post when it comes out. Until then, stay tuned.
