Writing C++ GUI Code without Visual Studio

2.3k views Asked by At

I don’t have Visual Studio for C++ GUI(Because I don’t want to install such a big thing on my pc). And I don’t have any problem with working with some really simple code editor like Sublime Text or Code Blocks IDE for console C++(of course). But the problem arises when I wanna make GUIs or Graphical User Interfaces.

I couldn’t find any resource¹ anywhere for how to handcode² GUI without any GUI Designer like Visual Studio’s or Code Blocks’.

resource: Any website, video etc.

handcode: By this, I mean coding a GUI without any GUI Designer.

Found the Solution

I found that I can use the graphic designer included in SharpDevelop IDE, which I can use for making the GUI, but for the intellisense, I can use VSCode with the C/C++ extension.

SharpDevelop is primarily made for .Net, so I can use it for .Net GUI also.
