Any IDE suggestion?

Hi there, I have to tell first that what I'm going to say is just a suggestion and not a negative comment about this app, so please don't get mad at me... The way to learn with this app is great, but I'd like to ask: why in the different lessons aren't there any IDE suggestion, at least in the "getting started" threads? Learning to code on the go is nice, but it would be handy to provide exemples of IDE to use for each language you learn instead of Googling it...

Depends on the language you choose to code with. Visual Studio covers many different languages. here is a link for the windows version https://www.visualstudio.com/free-developer-offers My recent post contains a link for the Mac version https://www.sololearn.com/discuss/410578/?ref=app

Thanks for your answer! However I did know that it depends on which language you choose, for exemple when you code in C++ it's advised to use Code::Blocks, NetBeans or Eclipse for Java... Just writing it in each language's first section would be ok for the real newbies (like me) but it was just a kind suggestion :)

I personally like JetBrains IDEs. You can get IntelliJ (java) for free (the community edition). https://www.jetbrains.com/products.html?fromMenu

Visual studio Can compile C, C++ run C#, Python, I believe java, It has packages the include game design engines like unity. If you want a IED, I recomment visual studio, its free works and works well with many of the languages you find on sololearn.

I found info on languages that you can use, in visual studio. Visual Studio supports 36 different programming languages and allows the code editor and debugger to support (to varying degrees) nearly any programming language, provided a language-specific service exists. Built-in languages include C,[6] C++ and C++/CLI (via Visual C++), VB.NET (via Visual Basic .NET), C# (via Visual C#), F# (as of Visual Studio 2010[7]) and TypeScript (as of Visual Studio 2013 Update 2). Support for other languages such as Python,[8] Ruby, Node.js, and M among others is available via language services installed separately. It also supports XML/XSLT, HTML/XHTML, JavaScript and CSS. Java (and J#) were supported in the past source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Visual_Studio

Once you get used to JetBrains IDE's, you will not want to use anything else.
