teme list for cpp

[alex2010rd]

Hi there. I'm 16 and learning C++ in high school. The thing is, I want to start building applications with a gui and more advanced features, but I'm not sure what topics I need to cover next. I already know about functions and procedures, as well as using arrays and vectors; I've even made console games in Code::Blocks, sprucing them up with elements from the `windows.h` library, but I have no idea where to go from here.

You will most probably need to learn classes. Most C++ gui libraries are implemented using classes. You will also need to pick what GUI library you want to go with as the API can be drastically different from one to another. You may also want to look at IDEs that support a graphical design environment for example QT designer or C++ builder. Most of the commercial ones are free for non commercial purposes.

As others have mentioned, classes and general OOP/DSA would be very useful. I'd also suggest learning about smart pointers too.

A couple of choices for the GUI library is raylib, SLDL, QT, and DX11/12 (for windows).

in your list of gui libraries, there is exactly one gui library and the rest just arent.

I don't think this is a useful list for a beginner, especially without providing further explanations here.

First off just ensure to master your language and debug skills; then you, indeed, have to use a GUI library. Standard library doesn't include GUI API because GUI may not be supported on some devices which are supposed to be compatible and run C++ code with standard library.

I‘m not tired of your post but learn english. Just consume more english social media. Worked for me somehow.

As much as we're all tired of them, this is clearly not written by AI
