Hi everyone!

Is someone using JetBrains's CLion IDE?

Or that everyone just use Visual Studio?

I try to use CLion, because I have better experience with other JetBrains IDE's. Just need a guidance to start developing with CLion(include headers, build, debug etc.).

P.S. I'm new to plugins and C/C++..

Thanks in advance!

Clion uses CMake as its building config tool, you need to learn how to use CMake to config your c/c++ project. But I do not recommend you use Clion, because the sample projects are Visual Studio project, and contains custom build steps, which is designed to work with Visual Studio(I'm not good at CMake too, so I don't know whether you can do these custom build steps in CMake). And Visual Studio will provide better experience when debugging your plugin with After Effects
