Helloworld_cpp

In this project I get the basics set up for c++

Setting up

• vscode + wsl extension (local os)
• wsl2 with ubuntu
• (wsl) ssh key for github
• (wsl) g++ / gdb

Resources

• Using C++ and WSL in VS Code
• The Cherno c++ 1-5

Notes & the plan

1. Building a single file was fine with g++
   1. I tried creating a function and moving it to seperate file ... this did not go well!
   2. All code in single file worked, but thats no good
2. I think I need a small sidestep into CMake
   1. I spent last decade in python, so building and managing a project in cpp is very different
   2. CMake seems a good place to start for setting up 1 I'm going to use getting started with cmake
