    Hi k0mfzKdmO3,

    If your environment is Windows 10, you could use visual studio IDE community(free for single developer). If the environment is Mac, the visual studio for MAC is better.

    And then, you need to install Desktop developer with C++ in visual studio installer.

    By the way, you could refer to this document to configure your development environment: Install C and C++ support in Visual Studio

    Best Regards, Dylan
