I am going to show you how to compile a C++ program on Linux. I’ll demonstrate it on Ubuntu Desktop 23.04, I’ll use the tried and true Hello, World! app as an example.

The code for this how-to is a kind of hello world program using LEDs. The code for this is hosted on Github, you can follow along with the blink.c file for the PIC16F887, PIC16F688, or PIC12F675.
