I was wondering if anybody was able to run code through Code::Blocks on Chromebook (more specifically a Samsung Chromebook)
.
I installed Code::Blocks directly through the Linux Terminal and was able to run the IDE fine.
The problem stems from trying to create a Console Application, I would make a folder for a 'Hello, world' code to be stored into (the folder is named C++ Project 1 since I am a beginner), expand the Sources folder, but when I double-click on "main.cpp" I would get a
"Could not open the file 'C++ Project 1/HelloWorld/main.cpp' The file does not exist." error message.
I am unable to get to the point where I can access or type a "Hello, world" program due to this.
I've attempted to download and use other IDEs such as Visual Studio Code, but I was unable to execute any programs.
I can use a web-based compiler, but I want to be able to save my projects as well as be able to debug them.
I'm afraid that if this is not due to user error, that I may need to purchase another laptop that can properly run Code::Blocks, and if so, do you have any recommendations for someone on a budget?
Thank you
