    I just spent 2 hours trying and failing to get a Hello, World! in Eclipse, I’m not brave enough for Linux

      Your first mistake was using Eclipse…

      Which programming language do you want to use?

      Depending on what you want to do the one does not imply the other. (And some times coding actually is easier on Linux, I had a way better experience compiling my c++ projects there then my friend had on windows)

          Yep, echo "Hello World!" works just as well in WSL as under native Linux.

              Are you bashing bash?

              No, I’m making fun of anybody who claims that outputting Hello World on Linux is somehow complicated.

                Well, we were talking about compiling C++ …

                  That person said only Eclipse. I can write a bash script in Eclipse. Only naming an IDE is the funny thing about that comment.
