I'm still using QtCreator as my go-to cross-platform C++ IDE! It might give CLion a shot since there's now a free version, but so far I haven't really felt a need to do so.

I switched to using JetBrains for most things recently, and I'll say this about CLion: it is incredible and my instant go-to for CMake-based projects. For any other build system it is a massive headache to get working in my experience.

  When CLion was launched, it only supported CMake. Support for other build tools has been bolted on to that and the seams are sadly very obvious IMO.

  Every year I try to use CLion for my project and every year it fails miserably compared to Qt Creator for indexing, navigation, etc. on large-scale codebases. It has more complete refactors though.

    Did you switch the engine to Clion Nova from Classic? It makes a huge difference.
