Git also works peer to peer. This simply mean that rather than some of the older repository managers, every git instance running on a machine has a similar level of importance to every other, so you don't need a running central server to allow you to operate. That is a big feature that you don't appreciate until you DO work with the mega server in the middle with all it's associated limitations.

This doesn't mean there isn't a a central repository where all the good stuff lives but it does mean that git allows you to make your own little development world where you do no damage to anybody else and you get all the control of being able to set up branches that are differing version of the code

===== So what is an IDE ?=====
an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is a collection of programmes that work together to ease the difficulties of acquiring, writing, modifying, testing, debugging code you write along with the possibility of many, many other functions you probably never considered. At the moment there is one that seems to be really sweeping the board with this ( yes, i know, emacs users, but I worked on pycharm and intellij and I know which I prefer out of the three).
It's Microsoft's Visual Studio code, https://code.visualstudio.com/ know to friends and enemies alike as VSC.
