it's possible to write any program using just your favorite text editor, but using an IDE makes it easier by doing things like highlighting syntax errors, giving autocomplete suggestions, and letting you compile, run, and step through it using a debugger all within the same program (hence "integrated")

text editor means simply, "a program that edits text". on Windows, notepad is an example of this.

theoretically, you can write apps in any text editor, but using an IDE will typically make it easier by providing a preview of what the app will look like as you make graphical changes, as well as allowing debugging as mentioned before.
