VisualStudio Code (VS Code) is the recommended coding tool for the development of ACS workshop due to it's ability to use LiveShare, which allows to work collaboratively easily between group members.
Follow the instructions of the VS Code documentation to download and install depending on your operating system.

Live Share enables you to quickly collaborate with other people on the same code without the need to sync code or to configure the same development tools, settings, or environment.
In the case of the ACS workshop it will be very useful to work in the project, hosting a LiveShare session from the ACS Virtual Machine and sharing it with each member of your group.
See more details of VS Code LiveShare in the official documentation: https://code.visualstudio.com/learn/collaboration/live-share
You will need to install the extension of LiveShare only in your personal computer unless you are the person hosting the LiveShare session from inside the Virtual Machine. More details in the next step.
In order to be able to host a LiveShare session, you will need a GitHub or Microsoft account to login.
In this tutorial in particular, we will host the LiveShare session from inside the ACS Virtual Machine to make it easier to collaboratively work on the project and be able to use ACS to compile and run your component.
Only one of the members of your group is needed to be the host of the LiveShare session.
