This article 5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD KEEP LEARNING C/C++ covers the great reasons why you should be learning C and C++. Interesting enough, C and C++ are one of the fastest growing languages still. The Raspberry Pi is a great learning platform for C and C++ development.

At the time of writing the Microsoft C/C++ Visual Studio Code extension does not support ARM based systems. The following is a guide to C/C++ development on a Raspberry Pi with Visual Studio Code. This tutorial explores using Visual Studio Code from Linux, macOS, or Windows to build C/C++ applications on the Raspberry Pi itself. It's a great option but it is Windows only. Visual Studio 2019 (inc free of charge Community Edition) includes tools to develop, cross-compile, copy the app to the Raspberry Pi and remotely attach the GDB debugger. You can either cross-compile to the ARM processor architecture from your desktop computer, or you can build, compile, and debug on the Raspberry Pi itself. There are two approaches to developing C/C++ applications for the Raspberry Pi. This tutorial targets modern Raspberry Pis, version 2 or better, including Industrial IoT devices like the Revolution Pi built on the Raspberry Pi Compute module. Visual Studio Code is a free, extensible code editor and is one of the most popular Open Source projects on GitHub.
