Which C++ compiler is the best for Windows? Do they have any difference?

Answer 1

clang/libc++: clang’s lead developer is also the project editor for the C++ standard, and libc++ was written from scratch to implement C++11 correctly, even if not efficiently or portably. Clang makes an excellent extra compiler to run to catch errors alongside your chosen production compiler.

Visual Studio and gcc, both are far ahead of the standard with experimental technical specifications: gcc has concepts, transactional memory, and special math, msvc has modules, coroutines, and parallelism (and concepts are promised soon), both have filesystem. Clang has none of that at the moment.
