And as to installing Xfce (also my preferred desktop):

$ sudo dnf groupinstall "Xfce Desktop"

should get you there.

gcc-c++ is the package containing the c++ compiler.  You may
also want other accompanying tools.  For that, you can
install the c-development package group with:

sudo dnf groupinstall c-development

If you're searching for a command, you can often find it
using the 'dnf provides' command:

$ sudo dnf provides c++

The 'dnf search' command is also handy.
