Sameko Dev C++

Sameko Dev C++ - The Optimized C++ IDE for Competitive Programming

Introduction

Have you ever encountered this situation? You're solving a C++ exercise, but VS Code is compiling slowly, and you have to go through the hassle of installing MinGW and configuring everything. Switching to Dev-C++ or Code::Blocks is indeed faster, but the interface is ugly and outdated, and it uses an old GCC that doesn't support new C++ standards.

Sameko Dev C++ was created to precisely solve this problem.

Its compile speed is 2–3 times faster than Dev-C++ (even when using the <bits/stdc++.h> library, it remains as fast as the regular libraries), combined with a modern interface similar to VS Code, Sameko offers a smooth, fast C++ programming experience without the need for complex installation. It is especially suitable for students and competitive programmers.
