Code::Blocks is a free, open-source, cross-platform integrated development environment focused on C, C++, and Fortran. It is built in C++ and uses wxWidgets for its graphical interface. The architecture is plugin-based, meaning most features (editor, compiler support, debugger, GUI designer) can be added or removed as plugins, making it highly extensible. Internally, it also provides a custom build system for fast dependency generation, parallel builds, and build queues.
One of the strong points of Code::Blocks is its flexibility and low overhead. Because it is modular, you can enable just the features you need, which helps keep it light and responsive even on modest hardware. Its debugger support includes breakpoints, watches, call stacks, memory dumps, disassembly, and more. On the downside, when dealing with very large projects, some users report lag or slowdowns. Also, its user interface and tooling may feel less polished compared to more modern IDEs. But for learners, hobbyists, or medium-sized C/C++ projects, Code::Blocks offers a solid balance of power and simplicity.
