GitHub Classroom automates repository creation and access control, making it easy for teachers to distribute starter code and collect assignments on GitHub.
I've used the Moodle integration to sync rosters. The Moodle side is also meant to be able to link GitHub Assignments as Moodle Activities, but I think that feature isn't implemented. In particular, if I create a new Activity and select the GitHub Classroom preconfigured tool, I think it's intended that this "Select content" button be clickable and be able to select an assignment that has been created in GitHub Classroom.
Instead, it just always links to the first assignment I created in the GitHub Classroom.
If this feature is indeed not present, there should be a note acknowledging that on the setup guide so that people don't assume it will work like other external tools. Implementing this feature would be valuable to avoid manual steps in linking assignment acceptance and grades/feedback with the repository.
Feature request :sparkles:
