Code Blocks - The only IDE you will need for coding C/C++
Using CodeBlocks IDE for mentoring new members in the development team. Most of the members love working with the IDE due to its simplicity and ease of operation.
Pros
Code Blocks is a great tool for developing C/C++ Programs. Well suited for beginners as it is a light weight IDE. Syntax highlighting features makes coding easier. The text ditor features like Font settings can be easily configured as per your personal requirements. Detecting errors and fixing them is easier as the IDE highlights the error containing code with a red symbol. This feature is quite useful for beginners. Newer versions of the IDE are available at regular intervals making it better with each release.
Cons
After executing a C/C++ program, if you forget closing the output window, the Run option gets disabled until the current output window is closed. This can be improved by allowing multiple output windows to remain open without affecting the functionality of the Run option.

Coding with The Code::Blocks
Summing up my experience with code::Blocks I would say one of the reasons that helped me take the initiative to learn coding was this software and I highly recommend any beginner to start with it.
Pros
• The software is totally free. • A place for beginners to start with as it has so many built-in features. • Moving to the professional level it's a good tool to debug with as it contains all the functionalities required for advanced IDE. • The ease execution of a good.
Cons
• For more sophisticated projects it may have a lot of issues with no reasonable reasons. • Doesn't support several languages. • Needs to be interfered with in order to get knowledge of the features available in hand.

Code::Blocks - Review 2021
I've been using Code::Blocks in my first year as a computer science student just because the teacher obliged us to work with (He is from old school XD). After that, I directly switched to other IDEs. And now as a developer, I think that I've took the right decision.
Pros
The only thing I liked in Code::Blocks is that it's free, open-source and cross-platform.
Cons
The user interface must be changed, it's too outdated for the present time. The software might have bugs sometimes and it takes a long time to start. It requires manual setup for GNU compiler. It also doesn't have dark-theme which is unacceptable. In one word : it's Old School.

Code::Blocks an awesome software for new developers
My experience was absolutely great and good, I really love this software
Pros
I really like and love the way that provide differents tools and options for new developers and the way that you can use those tools and functions to learn while you are programming, code::blocks have a great graphic interface to start and learn the way that this kind of software works.
Cons
I like least that some functions and some tools, for the people that know how to use this kind of software can be annoying and it doesn't helps to make that the users prefer this software.
