I program A LOT and I want to switch to Ubuntu 18.04, the only thing stopping is that I don't have a good IDE. Currently I have a dualboot with Ubuntu 18.04 and Windows 10, on Ubuntu, I currently run CodeBlocks, it does its job, but it's far from Visual Studio... I need A IDE with:

  1. Runtime Code checking(where it puts a red line under it if it thinks it is incorrect, like VS)(MANDATORY).
  2. A way to have multiple projects in the same window, so I can use CMake to generate a solution(whatever it's called for other IDE's) and have multiple projects in there, so I can easily see what code files belong to what project.
  3. Preferably a UI as close to VS as possible.
  4. A way to have CMake generate a project for it.(MANDATORY)
  5. C++ support is MANDATORY!

What would match these requirments best? Especially 1, 4 and 5 is important.

Thanks!

  • [Try this IDE](https://www.jetbrains.com/) It's for all OS. –  Jun 18 '18 at 18:36
  • @VladSpirin It's not a full ide, CLion is just an editor, ubuntu already has an intergrated one. I need one that can compile the project too, and has the features mentioned above. –  Jun 18 '18 at 20:22
  • Use [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) by Microsoft, can compile for gcc-7, python, java, and many more... – LazyBolt_1998 Jun 19 '18 at 06:47
  • @TimLeijten CLion is a full-featured IDE, not "just an editor". For me not only it serves as a great replacement for VS on mac/linux, but in many ways excels it. – tomi.lee.jones Sep 21 '18 at 09:49
