Remotely editing your work when your server does not have public IP address and you don’t want to spend any money is not so easy. Maybe you can use Team viewer or Anydesk or even chrome remote desktop, but there are high latencies.

Why use CLion? Better indexing and intelligence hints for C++ than Eclipse and QtCreator-desktop. Free for students. Also integrate PyCharm already. Good Git integration (although I am still used to commandline git).
