This is so true. I have MinGW, WSL, MSYS, Clang, VSCode, and VS. I have to juggle between them. I also hate VS, it does way too much for you and you get a bunch of garbage IDE files. I imagine MS engineers in every meeting: "should we make this simple? Nah, let's just add several layers of unnecessary bullshit, yeah that sounds good."

In other words I'm very lost and in over my head.

see above.
would you like a guide for windows with method 3?
methods 2/4 should work out of the box
still I recommend you to give a go to latest D with method 2
1. PellesC => small C+win32 hobby 2. Msys2+mingw64 => main env for rust too 3. Clang-LLVM + Windows SDK + Cmake + jom (and Windows CRT from C3 install) => Works fine https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases/download/llvmo...
(I use 3 for D too)
4. I would like to add to your guide compiling with OpenWatcom V2 (https://github.com/open-watcom/open-watcom-v2)
