WSL is used for all CS50-related installations as CS50 IDE (CS50.dev) uses Linux Terminal (Ubuntu).
1. Update
sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y
(you’ll have to enter your password)
2. Remove unwanted stuff
sudo apt autoremove -y && sudo apt autoclean -y
3. Install Clang
sudo apt install clang -y
4. Check the version of Clang
clang –version
5. Install GDB & check version (debugger)
sudo apt install gdb -y
gdb –version
6. Install Valgrind (memory leak checker)
sudo apt install valgrind -y
valgrind –version
If it doesn’t show any error, then the installation was a success.
Next, we want a code editor to write code. CS50 uses VSCode, so we are getting that.
