Why do developers say Xcode isn't that great?

Hi i am very new to this coding gig. I am an Art Student who happened to develop an interest due to some problems. To a lot of developers shock and disgust i am in fact starting with c/c++ and I am using the humble Xcode, out of lack of better knowledge. I tried to use visual basic however i had an SVN problem because my mac is on Catalina. I just want some intel into what makes Xcode not that great in case i run into problems in the future I would be able to know. Your info will be much appreciated.
