Setup

We will be using assorted software and programming tools in this module. This page will link to resources for the software and tools.

Moodle

The Moodle page for this module is the key information source. It will have the assessment brief, deadlines, submission information and assessment feedback.

If there are any contradictions between Moodle and other sources the Moodle information should be considered correct.

Website

The content for the module will be provided through the Programming 03 webpage https://ysjprog03.netlify.app/. Moodle isn’t suitable for presenting the information, videos and tutorials required. There is a link to the webpage on Moodle.

eMail

eMail is the primary communication method for this module. Please check your email each week day so we can update you on any changes. I advise checking your email shortly before any timetabled session in case of changes.

The best way to contact me is via email. You can also message me through MS Teams.

Microsoft Teams

MS Teams will be used for all face to face contact. Lab/tutorial session will be run as live MS Teams sessions. Please install MS Teams on your machines if you can, the web version is limited and a bit flaky.

Visual Studio Code

Our editor of choice this year is Visual Studio Code. VSC is installed on all our machines. It is a versatile, lightweight, easily extendable editor. It can be setup to work with multiple programming languages and to intergrate directly with the gitlab servers.

replit.com

We used replit.com to help us during the covid pandemic. replit.com can be used again this year but it is not required.

You can sign up for a replit.com account for free at https://replit.com/. I recommend you do so using your York St John email account address.

The replit.com page on this site (under the Reference section) contains instructions and tips for using replit.com.

Git

We will be using Git again to store code repositories and submit code. replit.com has very good integration with GitHub and can pull and push code from our GitLab (with a little bit of setup). Information on how to do this is on the replit.com page.
