Code::blocks is free to use. I use it for FMail development. It uses mingw on Windows, but you can configure other compilers.
CLion is a much better/advanced ide, it's payware, but you can get a free license if you are a developer for an active opensource project, which shouldn't be a problem for you! ;-)


Bye, Wilfred.
