Hi,↵
I want to share a recent change in my CP workflow and ask for your help on it.↵
↵
**Story**: For a long time, I was heavily reliant on VSCode with the [CPH](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=DivyanshuAgrawal.competitive-programming-helper) extension (for those who don't know, it's an extension that makes running and testing code for CP incredibly easy). CPH was convenient, so it got to the point where I didn't even know how to compile C++ code with the CLI (I never knew how to).↵
↵
Then, I switched to [CPEditor](https://cpeditor.org/) for a few months. It was pretty similar to VSCode + CPH, maybe even faster. But recently I've been solving some IOI-like batch problems (where we are given a grader and just need to implement some functions, unlike the common format of CP problems). I don't even run sample test cases when solving these because I think CPEditor defaults to single-file compilation, not supporting linking multiple files. ↵
↵
So, I decided to switch back to VSCode, but with a different setup this time.↵
↵
I would like to ask 2 questions:↵
↵
- How do you set up raw VSCode (no extensions, no snippets) fast before an onsite competition? Can you share your workflow?↵
- How do you test batch/grader problems? Can you share your workflow?↵
↵
Thanks in advance.
