Hello friends! I wasn&#x27;t sure if this is fit for &quot;Show HN&quot; so please shut it down if it&#x27;s not.<p>I&#x27;ve started building a C++ IDE for my own operating system, SerenityOS (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;SerenityOS&#x2F;serenity" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;SerenityOS&#x2F;serenity</a>). I realized that I&#x27;m never gonna switch over to using Serenity full time until it becomes a pleasant environment to do C++ development.<p>My only experience with IDE&#x27;s and C++ is as a user, so I&#x27;m learning this as I go. If this sounds interesting to you, then feel free to tag along, on YouTube, GitHub or both! :)<p>Videos so far:<p>1. Let&#x27;s build an IDE for Serenity: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=tUNudFw7rds" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=tUNudFw7rds</a><p>2. Embedding a terminal in the IDE: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=xVv2e9ND7bI" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=xVv2e9ND7bI</a><p>3. Let&#x27;s make it Build &amp; Run: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=kUk9sxlaP-k" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=kUk9sxlaP-k</a><p>4. Project-wide text search: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=eAZYHjHIjfg" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=eAZYHjHIjfg</a><p>5.
