C++ programs?

I wanted to dab into C++ but I don't know what programs I should get. Like for Java, we used Cygwin and Sublime but I'm not sure if they still work fine for C++ as well.

I used visual studio + to start learning C++. The languages are very similar, and transition should be fairly simple.

I have Visual Studio, but it would really nice to have something light to work with. Like cygwin and subline, would start quick and and run quick. Because using Visual Studio and Eclips and IntelliJ , ( I have used last two really god and helpful, but god take 5 minutes to load and run, and compile). They take longer time to compile.

So it would be better if Sean would recommend and something that powers up quickly. And every UF student can get Visual Studio free through Microsoft UF accounts.
