About

Code::Blocks is a highly extensible Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for the C, C++ and Fortran programming languages. It features support for a wide range of compilers, parallel builds, multi-target projects, and also provides an interface with GNU GDB.

Note: Code::Blocks runs in an isolated space from the main system, it has the tools provided by the SDK and its extensions, it also has a plugin that can be installed to add more dependencies. More information at https://github.com/flathub/org.codeblocks.codeblocks.
