In 2025 we will be using GitHub Codespaces for most of our programming.
In Y10 & Y11 you need to know how to use Codespaces but you don't need to know a lot about GitHub.
In Y12 & Y13 you will learn about using GitHub for version control.
A lot can go wrong when you are trying to save your work. Check out the trouble shooting slides.
We are using free accounts on Codespaces. If you use it a lot you will run out of free minutes.
If this happens (or if you just prefer it) you can use Visual Studio Code instead.
