As a lighter weight alternative than running an entire distrobox, one might also consider using the update-altetnatives command to manage multiple versions of gcc.
I'm not a programmer, but I do use Nvidia's drivers from the .run installer, which needs a newer version of gcc than Zorin comes with. I installed 13 and set it as default with update-alternatives.
None of this is meant to rain on your parade! There's no GUI for update-alternatives. I think both are valuable tools for different, but adjacent purposes.
