Course Tools

In this course, we are using these tools to work on code. If you haven't set up your laptop and installed the software yet, follow the guide in https://github.com/kiboschool/setup-guides.

• Github is a website that hosts code. We'll use it as a place to keep our project and assignment code.
• Github Classroom is a tool for assigning individual and team projects on Github.
• VSCode is your code editor. It's where you'll write code to solve programming assignments. It also has an embedded terminal, where you can run Python to try out your code and test that it works.
• Chrome is a web browser we'll use to debug our applications. Other browsers may have similar features, but the course is designed to be completed using Chrome.
• Gradescope is a grading platform. We'll use it to track assignment submissions and give you feedback on your work.
• Woolf is our accreditation partner. We'll track work there too, so that you get credit towards your degree.
