Pair Programming Labs
Most labs in this course will be completed in pairs. You will have a new partner for each lab, and the same pair will work together on all repositories that belong to that lab.
How Pair Programming Works
- Accept the assignment — Only the first partner (the Founder) clicks Accept Assignment in Classroom50.
- Add your partner — The Founder goes to Settings and adds the second partner as a full collaborator.
- Share the repository URL — The Founder emails or messages the repository link to their partner.
- Start collaborating — The second partner opens the link and joins the shared repository. Do not click Accept Assignment yourself.
Important: If both students accept the assignment independently, Classroom50 will create two separate repositories. Do not do this.

Working as a Pair
Both students are responsible for understanding and contributing to the work. Pair programming does not mean that one student completes the assignment while the other watches.
- Work together on the same repository.
- Discuss the design before making major changes.
- Switch who is typing regularly.
- Both students should understand the final solution.
- Commit and push your work regularly.
