I'm a C++ and Dart (yes I know unusual combo) dev on Windows
You feel my pain
My fucking god windows requires a whole month of just learning platform quirks and setting up a dev environment to START THE FUCKING WORK alone
Allegedly some new shite called dev drives and whatever are supposed to fix some of the disaster but I haven't tested it yet
Also ABSOLUTELY FUCK the entire C compiler installation and setup in Windows. My fucking god Microsoft had had 40 years to fix their tooling for THE most used language and you still need a dark ritual to make everything work and install MSVC and msys and clang
