CLion is like $8/month. That is the price of a couple of coffees. I think it is worth that IMHO.

- douche 10y agoPricing for developer tools tend to look more reasonable when you amortize it over the year and put it in Starbucks terms. Same thing for hardware upgrades. There's no real excuse for not investing in good tools.

People spend thousands on fishing rods and golf clubs for their hobbies yet when it comes to software they scoff at anything over £30. Having said that I think a community edition of CLion will be needed in the not too distant future as the competition in the C++ IDE space is improving with VS now free and Qt Creator.
