I'm moving from Mac Os to Linux Ubuntu and I wanted to know if Ubuntu is shipped with a C compiler and C packages. Where can I check the list of all available c headers ?

Not by default. But you can install all you need to develop with one command

sudo apt install build-essential

That will setup all the tools you need to start coding.

System headers are typically installed under /usr/include

You can list all them with

find /usr/include
