View submission: I need SDK for AmigaOS 3
The best way to really get going with C for Amiga is a cross-development approach.
This repository has setup scripts for everything: https://github.com/bebbo/amiga-gcc[1][2]
1: https://github.com/bebbo/amiga-gcc
2: https://github.com/bebbo/amiga-gcc
It'll build GCC, the required runtime libraries and all the SDK includes etc you want.
Native development on AmigaOS is also possible but eh a lot less pleasant.
If you want to follow on that path the best method is VBCC: http://sun.hasenbraten.de/vbcc/index.php?view=main[3][4]
3: http://sun.hasenbraten.de/vbcc/index.php?view=main
4: http://sun.hasenbraten.de/vbcc/index.php?view=main
The installation instructions from vbcc include guidance where to get the SDK and how to install it correctly.

On a real Amiga perhaps unavoidably unpleasant in modern terms - but you could also be on AmigaOS but on some ludicrous-speed huge-memory emulated fictional super-Amiga in WinUAE/FS-UAE/Amiberry on a desktop PC. Then, well, maybe a nice balance between retro feel for fun and not being driven completely insane by 1990s-level compile times etc.
