Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

g++ is GNU . It won’t be there on Windows

You may wish to set up either WSL to use Linux on Windows, or install the Microsoft C++ compiler

[gusty geode]

how pls

Like where I can download it?

[valid ridge]

I would recommend setting up WSL. Probably would be your path of least resistance

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install

[fathom lion]

Or you can install mingw for windows

[gusty geode]

I think i got WSL

[sonic condor]

i got g++ on windows, idk

[fathom lion]

Through mingw?

[sonic condor]

yeah

[valid ridge]

Well, I guess I mean by default, but yeah there is mingw and Cygwin and so on

[fathom lion]

There's a page on vsc guides to setup mingw

[gusty geode]

uhhh hello?

[gusty geode]

what now?

[fathom lion]

Or if you want wsl also works if you want but you'll need to separately configure it to work with vsc though if I'm not wrong

[valid ridge]

You can try to launch it and see if it works

[shrewd oak]

Also

Another option is to install the minignu for windows

It saves you the hassle

Give me a second I'll get a video

[gusty geode]

i clicked wsl and it's appeared a terminal then it's disappeared immediately

[valid ridge]

You will need to follow the instructions I have in that case

But also you can go the other approaches people specified too

[shrewd oak]

wsl --list --online

Then wsl --install [distro]

[fathom lion]

Kinda funny you're asking c++ help in python server

[gusty geode]

🙂

ok

[shrewd oak]

Running wsl --install is gonna install Ubuntu by default

https://youtu.be/z2jDamkbBF0?si=R-WO3V2-6QdJZq2w

This is the windows alternative

Using mingw

Though I code in C not in C++ so idk how that's gonna work

[fathom lion]

Pretty much the same

[shrewd oak]

But hey! It's an Indian tutorial so it's bound to work anyway.

[fathom lion]

You can use gcc to compile c++ also but it's better to use g++ which comes along in mingw

[shrewd oak]

Never too late to learn

Well, mingw installs g++ so you should be good, make sure to also install the actual plugins from the mingw installer

Just follow the tutorial lmfao
