A set of N people would likely result in more than (N+1) different
approaches when it comes to that. The environment is old school here
as I just have a set of terminals coupled with emacs as editor and
gcc/clang, but you have a large set of editors at your disposal (nano,
vi, etc.).

It depends on what you are actually trying to do and how you want to
ease your development experience. I have little experience with CLion
or such kind of tools, some with Eclipse, but I find that kind of
cumbersome as well when it comes to C.
