Configure visual studio code for C\C++ 2020

On my recommendation I think the best IDE forC\C++  programming language is Visual Studio Codehttps://code.visualstudio.com/.

With the addition of extensions, VSCode is a great tool for quickly accessing and editing C\C++ code, whether you are a beginner or an advanced developer. With the addition of an open source compiler that is native to your platform, you can use VSCode as a complete tool for building your C++ solution.

HERE ARE THE STEPS TO CONFIGURE VS CODE FOR C\C++

STEP 1:

Download and Install  Visual Studio Code their offical website https://code.visualstudio.com/

STEP 2:

Also Download and Install the mingw-w64 .

STEP 4:

Adding the extension in vs code (Recommended)

Open the IDE (vs code ) and add the extension :
