C++ is deprecated, learn Go instead.

Go? Isn't that like a dog language?

Hey man, if you want to work on a project together I'm interested.

I'd rather not use C++, but its OK if you're dead set on using it. I think it would be fun to make a project, anything, even if its not novel. I need to work with some other people, and I'm getting lonely programming alone.

I'm somewhat like you in that I'm living the NEET life, but I actually have a degree in CS and math from a non-meme university. Too depressed and scared to go looking for a job, plus I'm super rusty so I don't want to get hired only to fail miserably.

>hardware
Literally anything with a cpu and a c++ compiler will do fine, unless you plan to work on game development or something resource heavy.
>OS
Depends. If you're building Windows applications then obviously windows. Otherwise Linux and OSX are better.
>Editor
Literally any editor. You may want some IDE features like autocomplete and automatic brackets but those are available as plugins.
For terminal use I do recommend Vim, it's much better than nano ergonomically. If you like your editor to be as much an OS then you can also use emacs. For GUI editors I recommend either VS Code (build from source, the binaries are under a proprietary license and aren't the same) and sublime text. for OSX the original textmate is the best, hands down.
>IDE
Use one only if you are working on Windows or your project requires it.
>Books
They are a joke. Start with a program you want to write, draw a diagram if it is complex, and Google the little questions you have about technique.

>>62240449
Not OP, but that's a damn good response, thank you for taking the time to write it out

>>62240449
This except fuck windows. I use VS for C++ at work and it's slow garbage.

Seriously stop listening to people on this board. If you are new to programming don't worry about the tools you start with or the OS. What's important is that you focus on the language. If you're on Windows then use Visual Studio which is not complicated and gets the job done, or just used Code::Blocks. If you're on Linux just use Code::Block or Eclipse. Don't worry about the IDE until you get farther into the language. As for hardware, you can compile shit on any machine. Just get a decent laptop with at least 8gigs of memory and the rest is up to you.

Gedit will do just fine.

See: >>62240449 you don't need books at this point. You need to start designing and writing (shitty) code.

just go with sololearn
