Red Panda C++ is a lightweight yet powerful C/C++/GNU Assembly IDE.

It provides users with coding experiences like vs code and CLion, but is much lightweighted than them.

Highlights of its new and enhanced feature:
* High DPI support
* Code intellisense (Code Completion suggestion while editing).
* Syntax checking while editing
* Greatly improved debugger (local \ call stack \ memory view)
* Theme and color scheme.
* UTF-8 encoding support
* Greatly improved search/replace function; File/Replace in files
* Refactor: rename symbols
* Cross Platform: Windows and Linux
* SDCC Compiler Support

  • This is probably my favorite lightweight C/C++ IDE of all time. I'm a 'hobbyist' programmer and I've had a strange obsession with collecting IDEs/Editors for different languages since about 2011. I have tried a LOT of them (keep most of them, lol, but only use a select few regularly). As someone who doesn't usually get involved in large projects (often working with a single file), I love finding "lite" IDEs that just do their job. This one certainly does that, and there aren't many left that are updated (I don't consider CodeBlocks "light", btw). It beats everything I've tried (Pelle's is fantastic, too, esp as an overall project - but that one is kinda in its own category). Also, the "PSet" feature is a really cool. I really hope this project continues for some time, since I <3 this one. Keep up the good work - this is a really superb C/C++ IDE. Oh, and it's FAST and looks great, too! ;) EDIT: People keep bringing up Dev-C++ in the other comments. I don't know if the reviews for RedPanda Dev-C++ migrated over to this project or what, but this (new, 64bit IDE) is more than just another Dev-C++ fork... It's so much nicer. It's RedPanda C++ ;)
  • Good
  • portable, fast
  • Hi, I am a teacher and I want to thank you for such a job! It's a really awesome development environment. I'm going to create an online course for kids based on Red Panda C++. I was a big fan of Dev-C++ as an IDE for beginners, but it really needed an update. What you have done is just wonderful! Thank you very much!
  • Thanks for this app. Now I use it instead of Embarcadero Cpp. It has issues with w64devkit toolkit (make clean). But changing " RM = del /q /f" to "RM = cmd /c del /q /f" in the makefile solves it with no harm to other toolkits.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have a try.
