- markus_zhang 6y agoThanks I'm sticking to my Linux vbox at the moment but will try it out whence I move back to Windows.
- qalmakka 6y agoThe only real downside of using MSVC is the mind boggling amount of storage it hogs with libraries you'll never ever use not even once if your goal is to just build simple C++ programs. MinGW might be the only viable approach if you are storage constrained (LLVM/Clang also supports MinGW of course)
