About Replit

Replit is a browser-based development platform where you can write, run and deploy code in dozens of languages without local setup. Its Replit Agent builds applications from natural-language descriptions, setting up the project, database and deployment, and it keeps iterating as you give feedback. Built-in hosting, secrets management and multiplayer editing make it easy to share and collaborate. It is used by learners, hobbyists and teams building internal tools. A free Starter plan is available, and paid plans add more agent usage, compute and private deployments.

Best for: Building and hosting apps entirely in the cloud.
