GitHub Classroom launched in July 2013. In August 2026, it was sunset — and a lot of instructors were left scrambling for an alternative. The official recommendations point to "yet-another-online-service" - and your school might not like you sending student information (names, emails, etc.) through unknown online solutions.
That was one of my pain points (among others). So I built CodeHub Classroom. 🎉
I teach computer programming at the post-secondary level. My colleagues and I needed to adjust fast. You might be scrambling for alternatives. So I'm throwing my hat in the ring with CodeHub Classroom.
What it is
CodeHub Classroom is a free desktop app that follows a two step Provision and Release approach to setting up student assignments as GitHub repositories. I'm baking in a lot of the features I hoped GitHub Classroom would eventually build, but never did.
