   I do all of my development from Visual Studio using CMake. I can compile using MSVC from windows, gcc10/gcc9 from WSL or clang (can't remember the version) from the FreeBSD box. As of VS 2019 version 16.8 (10NOV20), MSVC is C11/C17 compliant.

   Nov 5, 2015 · The names are quite clear to me: cygwin32-gcc-g++ is a compiler for 32 bit cygwin. gcc-g++ is the basic 64 bit compiler (you probably must install this one). mingw-gcc-g++ is a 32 bit compiler for native 32 bit Windows.

   You should almost always just use the default/preferred compiler for your OS. So Visual C++ on Windows, GCC on Gnu/Linux, and LLVM on Mac. There's occasions where this isn't feasible or desirable, but you won't encounter those while learning the core language and standard library.

   Is GCC/MinGW a good compiler?

   • Despite all that, GCC/MinGW is an entirely reliable quality compiler, which in my opinion outperforms any to date available version of MSVC in terms of quality of generated code. This is somewhat less pronounced with the most recent versions of MSVC, but still visible.

   Is MinGW GCC a native program?

   • The bash that comes with MinGW is not a native Windows program. It depends on the MSYS DLL, which is a fork of the Cygwin DLL. Same for many of the other Unix utilities that come with MinGW/MSYS. MinGW gcc indeed is a native program though. Make is available both in a native version and an MSYS one.

   Which is better Cygwin or MinGW?

   • Cygwin emulates entire POSIX environment, while MinGW is minimal tool set for compilation only (compiles native Win application.) So if you want to make your project cross-platform the choice between the two is obvious, MinGW. Although you might consider using VS on Windows, GCC on Linux/Unices.

   Is Cygwin required to use GCC on Windows?

   • GCC is just one of the many C/C++ compilers out there. @Celeritas Cygwin is not required to use GCC on Windows, MinGW (-w64) is (to provide system headers and libraries). It is desirable to have GCC on Windows, because it has better C++11 language support (library is still lacking in view of MSVS2012), fortran, C99 (C11 upcoming) support, etc...

   Do I need a GCC compiler?

   • Answer #3: Yes, Use GCC compiler. It is a cross platform compiler. To compile your source code in Windows use MinGW that provides GCC compiler for Windows and compiles your source code to native Windows program. Do not use any advanced programming features (like Windows API) to compile your source code in all platforms successfully.

   Should I use GCC (MinGW) or MSYS2?

   • I would go with gcc (MinGW) or clang. If you combine it with MSyS2, you get nearly a linux-like environment. There is no reason to use MSVC, except you have to. It's a bloated compiler (Like some GBs of installation), not supporting newer C than C99 IIRC, and it is nearly unusable from the commandline
