Getting started with GitHub Learning Lab

Install GitHub Learning Lab as you would install any GitHub App. GitHub Apps take extra steps to be respectful of your privacy but require a little bit of setup to get started.

GitHub Learning Lab creates a repository with your GitHub user account every time you register for a new course. This repository is where you'll work with Learning Lab in issues and pull requests.

When you install the app, you can choose to authorize access to all repositories, or grant it access to a single repository.

Recommended approach: Install GitHub Learning Lab on all repositories

  • Give GitHub Learning Lab general access and trust at your user account level, just like you would for any other OAuth service. This way, you’ll only need to authorize GitHub Learning Lab once on initial installation.

Alternative approach: Install GitHub Learning Lab on a single repository

  • Grant GitHub Learning Lab access to one repository on your account. Once this permission is granted, the app will be able to create new repositories on your account.
  • As you register for each course, the app will create a new repository. To work with the bot on a specific course, you’ll need to grant GitHub Learning Lab access to that repository.
