I know this is off-topic, but I figured I could find developers here with good advice.
Anyone out there working in C++ for Windows 10? I need to port a bunch of MS-DOS Borland Turbo C++ code and would really like to avoid learning a new programming language if possible. I've done some preliminary research on compiler options, but would like input from trusted sources. Thanks in advance!
Go to https://visualstudio.com and download Community Edition. It is full featured and free for personal use, small companies and all open source projects. There are no restrictions on the code produced. For libraries beyond what is in the Standard Library, I recommend using vcpkg. I've done a video on using vcpkg: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpBDHh47w-I>. It greatly simplifies consuming libraries. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book <http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline> The Terminals Wiki <http://terminals-wiki.org> The Computer Graphics Museum <http://computergraphicsmuseum.org> Legalize Adulthood!
