I know that there is ReSharper for C# for helping to program, is there something similar for C++?
ReSharper by Language: C++ C++ support includes C, C++03, C++11, C++14, C++17, C++/CLI, and partially C++20. ATL, MFC and COM projects are supported.
ReSharper 2021.3 release supports Visual Studio 2022 out-of-the-box.
Update: The JetBrains are working on Resharper for C++.
While not quite as good for C++ as Resharper is for C#, Whole Tomato makes a product called Visual Assist X which handles C++ and does it in a reasonably performant manner.
Developer Express also makes CodeRush, which provides more features than Visual Assist, but which is also a much harder drain on your computer, and also which occasionally makes mistakes -- most constructs using macros won't work correctly with CodeRush. Note that as of 2013-05-31, CodeRush has deprecated their C++ support.
Resharper and Visual Assist are nice to have around -- I occasionally flip on CodeRush for some of it's better refactorings, but most of the time leave it off because Visual Assist X's code completion assistance is better.
Do keep in mind that installing any such plugin requires running the IDE in Integrated Mode (rather than Isolated Mode). This means:
