Looks like what you found is in the Sage notebook server, to be precise.

Thanks for joining us!  

In this case, you'll want to see the (somewhat fragmentary) notebook 
developer guide http://www.sagemath.org/doc/developer/sagenb/index.html and 
also the github page for the sagenb 
project, https://github.com/sagemath/sagenb/  Also see 
especially https://github.com/sagemath/sagenb/issues/203 for part of how to 
set up an independent sagenb for developing.

I don't know - a lot use Emacs.  I don't think a lot of people use an IDE. 
 Since in this case what is mostly happening is following templates and 
Python code, something like Firebug is probably most useful.  There is 
nothing related directly to the core Sage piece - it's all the web app that 
you are seeing.

Awesome!   I've reported your observation
