Well that sucks!
I'm using CodeLite IDE for my dev. (or Vim) and while it also keeps tabs on the files, it at least explicitly asks whether I want to reload a changed file, overwrite it or just continue with in-memory contents.

3. Get all that done... and find out the programming framework in the tutorial has been deprecated and (at least in CodeLite) is impossible to run without knowledge I do not have (last time I programmed in C/C++ I was trying out a hot new program called Netbeans...).

Spent all morning troubleshooting codelite, gave up after 5 hours, swapped to coreblocks, and I wrote this! Not much but it takes user input and adds it to the output

there are no good c++ ides that are free software.
i don't know why stuff like codeblocks and codelite even exists, they fail at the most basic things one can ask of an ide.

Seriously, I would have launched the #codelite beta on the PC as well because you know the PC players have a PC to check out the beta...

If you don’t want AI stuff I recommend:
CodeLite 17.0 (18 has ai)
QT creator (has the option but with clangd it’s great, debugger kinda sucks tho)
CLion (you can disable all ai stuff)
Visual Studio 2019 (uncheck intellicode at install)
Juci++ (super obscure but lightweight)

I gave up tried to follow some kind of tutorial but they change api every couple months you can’t follow anything. This thing is not made for humans, I think.
Currently on codelite and it works nice for a free tool!

I just paired CodeLite with clangd and it's doign a great job.

The AI options you can disable, but my concert is they're using AI to make this delivering consistently worse product every update.
I'm thinking about biting the bullet and learning neovim. CodeLite starts looking better and better too. There's very little these products have to offer for gamedev.

I despice VScode but will use it if I must :P I found CodeLite to be a decent suepr-lightweight IDE in case of trouble.

Speaking of Symfony we could use some feedback and samples on improving support for it, if your interested.
Another note on maintenance, I have been writing PHP for +20 years and maintaining a PHP completion engine (CodeLite) for 10. PHPantom is the replacement for that project's PHP engine.

I use codelite myself but only as an editor. I have no need for fancy features.

some quick notes on how to set up VS code to work nicely with Retro68, the compiler I use for Mac development 68kmla.org/bb/index.php...
Retro68 IDEs: Visual Studio Code, Eclipse, CodeLite, ...
I'm trying to get a good cross-compile environment set up to write 68K Mac apps from my modern Mac (OS: Big Sur). I've tried 3 IDEs so far, with mixed, but distinct results. Curious about others using...

Ooh I've not heard of CodeLite - will take a look. Thanks :)

Welp. CodeLite it is for me. I started with it on Windows and came around now to using it on Linux, too, after NetBeans went the way of the dodo.
Kudos on using Obsidian! I love that application!

In the past I used NetBeans (up to v8) for my C++ projects, but after it became Apache NetBeans it became unwieldy. Switching back to #CodeLite seems to be working fairly well, but I tend to drift off to pure VIM + CMake for max. portability and min. requirements.

Ok VS code is a bit bloated and sometimes does not feel lightning fast... But it's crazy how it straight up works, including the WSL integration, C++ parsing and copilot integration.
I still love codelite buuuuut...
