Winamp is developed in Microsoft Visual C++.

If you want to develop plugins for it all you need is a 32 Bit Windows Compiler, like Borland's free C++Builder.

Want to make a simple app like winamp???

Winamp is not, by any means, simple... Especially if you're gonna use C++

Start slow, find some online tutorials, buy some books - Deitel & Deitel, and work on some small personal apps...

Then maybe in several years, you'll be able to accomplish a better media player

Tutorials for what? Coding in C++? Writing codecs? writing GUI apps in MFC?

The C++ it self and what I want to do is:

1)Start off by making a realy ****y *player, 3buttons*, Then when I learn more I can add more so it gets better

2)Code it in C++

3)So whats the best app for me to make c++ apps?

As I said, there's no easy way to start coding a program like winamp... there is considerably more technology behind winamp than you think.

not to mention, you would need an intense background in C++ to even manage the layout.

As stated before, you're jumping to a project that even serious CSC students with 2+ years of experience would have trouble accomplishing... so you need to think smart, and try something smaller :)

    • Nothing inherently wrong, but why buy 2021 tech in 2025? Assuming you were aiming for 6-10 years of usage, better to buy something current.
    • I have begun using Windows 11 native passkey feature. i have four passkeys set up so far. Three work fine, One has never worked. I have removed it and recreated it several times, still no luck. Anyway, on the websites in which it works, it works geat. No more two 2FA.
    • No, because most people coming into the workforce are already familiar with either MS Office or Google Docs. You know, from schools. Also, OnlyOffice is Russian, which should be a nogo for almost any European government
