My Hackintosh Hardware Spec

I would miss Xcode for sure. Linux unfortunately has nothing that compares, unless you think a bunch of xterms running vi is a development environment. Don't even get me started on Eclipse (yuck!)

Visual Studio Code is available for Linux. I've never used it, but I'd think it would compare favorably to Xcode (especially since everyone seems to complain loudly about Xcode).

Thanks, I'll have to give it a shot. Always thought VS Code was more geared toward .JS but it looks like they have cobbled together extensions to support C++ [1].

I used Visual C++ long ago, in a past life when I used to develop on Windows, and it was pretty good. Played around with more recent versions of it (2010 - 2015) and boy has it gone downhill! Very slow and clunky compared to what I remember.

Have you used an IDE besides Xcode? I've found Xcode to be one of the worst IDEs I've ever used. And in fact, a bunch of xterms is even better.
