Dev-C++ for Windows 10/8/7 Reviews

Embarcadero Dev-C++ is good. However, the UI interface is much different from original Dev-C++ (Orwell version and bloodshed version). Here I recommend "Xiaoloong Dev-C++", which supports Windows 11/10/8/7, and is very similar to the original.

Currently there's still some work to do, and the support lack: The IDE isn't as stable as needed, the Astyle menù item isn't working in some conditions, the project clean also fail in some condition, and the additionall UI Themes provided are quite useless and ugly. Moreover there are just few releases quite old: it seems to me that even this Dev-C++ evolution became a zombie! Honestly, at this moment (September 2022), I should say that IMHO a better Dev-C++ evolution - for teaching and developing simple C++ programs - could be another SourceForge Dev-C++ project: "Red Panda Dev C++" (version 1.2 and following). Hope to see asap a better release also from Embarcadero, as I was a Borland Turbo C++ developer and also a C++Builder buyer.

In my opinion, when it comes to writing applications on C language - this IDE is handier than the Visual Studio. For one simple reason - It just works! When I need to add a library to the project, I just need to add .c and .h files to the project. That's it! Unfortunately, can't say the same about the Visual Studio. Although sometimes Embarcadero Dev-C++ doesn't seem to work as stable as the Visual Studio, it's convenience, speed, and ease-of-use are overshadowing all of its flaws making it a worthy alternative to the Visual Studio.

It reborned, finally!

Absolutely amazing!!

Very lightweight IDE

Absolutely brilliant and useful!!

Excellent team effort and free too (the best price!)

Love the style, easy-to-use, and it's lightweight! Best C++ IDE I've had use so far!

Excellent software.

Fast and lightweight project.

Another great project built using Embarcadero Delphi

Love the dark theme. I wish we can get more add-ons.

Very simple and fast ide for c++

This new Dev-C++ version is really great, after many years nice to see support from Embarcadero. It is one click install, you don't need to install Linux no need to do settings for compiler etc. Fast and easy to compile, compatible with C++ standards. DevC++ has different skins and enhanced code highlighting, and many other options for a small editor . If you are looking to develop UI based (like buttons, edit boxes etc.) applications i recommend you C++ Builder Community Edition or C++ Builder too.

Fast and portable C++ IDE with Great modern UI. If you used or still using earlier version of Dev C++, you should try new version. I created an article about Modern Dev-C++ in my blog. Check out: abdullahilgaz.com/karsinizda-modern-dev-c-plus-plus

Great to see an established open source project receive so much love and a great update!
