Please feel free to laugh....What is IDE?

Thanks my friend. Those ideas will help get the wheels turning. I have started learning the basics but I am trying to begin a project that I can work on. I'm sitting there staring at the blank screen not knowing where to start lol

Follow up question. I am planning to edit on my laptop at home and I would also like to tweak and make changes while I have free time at work. Unfortunately I can't download any type of software on my work computer. Is there any way I could continue my project on the work computer while also using one of these suggested editors on my home laptop?
