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.
And as to installing Xfce (also my preferred desktop):
$ sudo dnf groupinstall "Xfce Desktop"
should get you there.
