About integration with an IDE
Opcionalmente, puedes configurar una tarea para utilizar un ambiente de desarrollo integrado (IDE). Los IDE permiten a los alumnos escribir código, ejecutar programas y colaborar sin instalar Git y contar con una cadena de herramientas de desarrollo integral en la computadora del alumno. Si eliges un IDE para una tarea, los alumnos aún pueden verificar y ejecutar el código localmente en una computadora con el software necesario.
After a student accepts an assignment with an IDE, the README file in the student's assignment repository will contain a button to open the assignment in the IDE. The student can begin working immediately, and no additional configuration is necessary.

We know cloud IDE integrations are important to your classroom and are working to bring more options.
Configuring an IDE for an assignment
You can choose the IDE you'd like to use for an assignment when you create an assignment. To learn how to create a new assignment that uses an IDE, see "Create an individual assignment" or "Create a group assignment."
Setting up an assignment in a new IDE
The first time you configure an assignment using a different IDE, you must ensure that it is set up correctly.
Unless you use Acerca de GitHub Codespaces, you must authorize the OAuth app for the IDE for your organization. For all repositories, grant the app read access to metadata, administration, and code, and write access to administration and code. For more information, see "Authorizing OAuth Apps."
Acerca de GitHub Codespaces does not require an OAuth app, but you need to enable Acerca de GitHub Codespaces for your organization to be able to configure an assignment with Codespaces. For more information, see "Using Acerca de GitHub Codespaces with GitHub Classroom."
