Pelles C is a complete development kit for Windows and Windows Mobile. It contains among other things an optimizing C compiler, a macro assembler, a linker, a resource compiler, a message compiler, a make utility and install builders for both Windows and Windows Mobile.

It also contains an integrated development environment (IDE) with project management, debugger, source code editor and resource editors for dialogs, menus, string tables, accelerator tables, bitmaps, icons, cursors, animated cursors, animation videos (AVI's without sound), versions and XP manifests.

The compiler is based on LCC (by Chris Fraser and David Hanson), and the install builder for Windows is based on NSIS. Both are heavily modified.

Support for 32-bit Windows (X86), 64-bit Windows (X64), and Windows Mobile (ARM).

Integrated source code editor with call tips and symbol browsing.
