it depends on the ide you find the folder where it is installed. There you will find the source file as well as compiled .exe file you can take out the .exe file if it uses other library in a big program you will need their .DLL too and then run it like other applications. it may not have a stylish icon splash and discription.but do not try to change anything inside the ide,s installed folder

When you build and run your code in an IDE, you compile that code so your device and read and execute your program. You will find an executable of your program inside your project's directory.
