Looking for a good IDE for the C programming language. Looking for a IDE in WIndows and Linux
 
Code::Blocks is a nice, free OSS editor and can install mingw/gcc for Windows during the installation. It also has binaries available for many Linux distros.

inb4 someone says not to use an IDE. (Someone asked for an IDE suggestion, and imma going give an IDE suggestion.)

Must hold back snarky comments. ;)

(Eclipse is fine once you learn how to use it, but it's not really a n00b friendly IDE for C programming.)

I was kind of surprised this question got asked again, and wanted to know if he checked that, to get a point of reference.
 
OP asked about Windows and Linux, something the last two suggestions didn't fully consider. :p

Visual Studio Code is an editor available on Linux, but it's pretty quirky for C development.

There's a Windows port of Geany.

Oops. Reading fail on my part. Then again, you can always cross-compile for Linux using Visual Studio.
 
As has been said, if you are doing your development on Windows, just use Visual Studio and cross compile.
