Fri, Jan 23, 2026Building a Private Bookmark Manager and Browser Extension in Replit [webinar]
Summary Replit hosted a livestream build session showing how to create a private bookmark manager with a Chrome extension from scratch using Replit Agent in under two hours. The team demonstrated how to write effective prompts, troubleshoot issues, and add AI-powered features like content summarization using OpenAI integration with minimal manual coding. Building the initial functional app and extension cost around five dollars using Replit Agent, with additional costs for feature iterations and enhancements throughout the session. The livestream showcased real-world debugging and problem-solving, including handling database migrations, security vulnerabilities, and browser extension authentication flows as they occurred. The start of 2026 is proving to be an exciting time for builders on Replit. In a recent livestream, community managers Manny Bernable and Raymmnar walked over 1,000 viewers through building a complete bookmark management application with a Chrome extension—live and unscripted—using Replit Agent.

Wed, Oct 12, 2022Discuss code in context with Inline Threads
Part of what makes Replit so exciting to us is our community. We're always looking for new ways to help our creators connect, collaborate, and create something great together. When you're coding a great idea, we want to help you stay in creative flow, without being isolated from your friends or team. Since their introduction in 2021, Threads have been important for collaborative creation on Replit, especially for educators and students. Today, we're excited to release a new version of Threads and Chat. There's something in this release for everyone: from hobbyists and hackers, to students and educators, to teams and professionals.

Embedding an Editable Repl is Going Away
We've started the process of deprecating editable embedded Repls, these will become read-only from August 1st. You might be wondering why? Abuse of Repls is Problematic This blog post from 2020 explains the situation well, when you run a Repl from within an embed it is essentially being used anonymously and can therefore have a massive burden on your experience by swamping our servers with abuse. Not having the option to have editable embeds means that we avoid this problem altogether. Clickjacking is a Thing
Mon, Apr 18, 2022How Do You Do, Fellow Teachers?
Hi everyone! I'm David Morgan (@LessonHacker), I'm stepping into the Teacher + Customer Success role and am ridiculously excited to be working at Replit and being part of this amazing community. I have been working as a secondary school Computer Science teacher in the UK for the best part of two decades, and am passionate about making CompSci education frictionless and accessible for all. I'm sure I had more hair on my noggin when I started teaching though… but, rather than blather on about myself, I thought that, by way of introduction and to show off my teacher-cred, I'd start off by showing you my favourite thing about Replit for teaching programming. Collaborate for the Win I don't think there's enough love given to the way that Replit multiplayer also allows collabotative communication between many users. As a teacher I find this sort of thing invaluable, and it's one of the big differentiators that makes Replit more powerful than any other IDE because you can collaborate on code exactly the same way you'd work on something like a Google Doc. Multiplayer is the superpower of Repls, and Teams for Edu turns multiplayer on by default.
Mon, Aug 23, 2021Replit Joins Google for Education Integrated Solutions Initiative
New Replit features, powered by Google Cloud, make it easier than ever for students to code. Replit is announcing it has joined the Google Cloud Partner Advantage Program, utilizing Google Cloud as part of its core infrastructure to create accessible coding opportunities for computer science educators and learners around the world. As a participant of the Google for Education Integrated Solutions Initiative, Replit offers customers the ability to collaborate on code from anywhere, on any device. Students and teachers can easily build on Replit from a Chromebook, download it from the Google Play Store to their device, and even integrate Replit Teams for Education into Google Classroom. With the new Google Classroom integration, teachers can bring collaborative coding into their classroom faster than before. They can quickly add every student in their Google Classroom to a Team, easily add Replit projects as Google Classroom assignments, and access time-saving features like autograding tools and an integrated gradebook. As one Replit teacher put it, “I can concentrate on giving more time to working with the children and helping them rather than on housekeeping stuff.” These tools allow educators to focus on the important things, and Replit has those values covered, too. First, Schools and parents can rest assured that their students’ privacy is protected. With the security of Google Cloud infrastructure and FERPA/COPPA compliance built into the product, students can participate freely within a Replit Team for Education. Additionally, Replit has an app in the Google Play Store and will be featured in the Chromebook App Hub, making it easy for students on any device to get started coding. A Replit Teams for Education user, Shane McReavey, shared that “not everyone has the funds to purchase a laptop, so to create that sense of equality, that everyone has an opportunity, that’s where Replit has been really beneficial.” Another member of our teacher community recently shared that “Coding online is the best option for students especially if there is another lockdown. Many of them only have Chromebooks at home.” When so many students are still learning from their computers and tablets at home and numerous schools have opted to distribute Chromebooks to their students, this makes an enormous difference.
Thu, Jun 10, 2021Lessons on CS Equity from the RESPECT Conference
I had the pleasure of attending the RESPECT conference last month, convening with and hearing from a number of CS educators and researchers throughout the week. The focus of the conference was on equity in CS education. Replit's own goal is to give people coding superpowers by providing them with a powerful and accessible tool for every step of their journey. Throughout the conference, speakers described tools and best practices to better engage and represent minoritized groups in CS. We, on the Replit team are constantly seeking to improve the experience for our users so they can feel comfortable to learn and share. A Vibrant Multiplicity of CS Cultures During her keynote, Dr. Amy J. Ko discussed the history of computing cultures and offered a vision of a vibrant multiplicity of CS cultures that engage with people with all kinds of interests and experiences. She mentioned that computing has historically been both a refuge for marginalized people as well as a magnet for power. Replit aims to create a welcoming community of creative developers and give this community opportunities to grow their businesses and even monetize their projects. Replit has and will continue to support all of our users by creating a dynamic platform that enables learners to become confident creators. It's not a simple task to increase access to coding education or to make the field more welcoming, but Dr. Ko's vision offers a solution: increase educational access to improve diversity within the field.
Mon, Mar 1, 2021Replit Teams for Education is Leaving Beta!
*Edit: As of March 2022, Teams for Education is free for all educators. You can gain access here. At Replit we believe that computers give people superpowers. With computers, anyone who's willing to learn can spend more of their time on creative invention rather than tedious drudgery. They help us automate repetitive tasks and build on the collective knowledge of all the great thinkers, inventors, artists, and teachers who came before us. Computer science teachers around the world are bestowing these superpowers upon the next generation of creators and builders. We built Replit Teams for Education for them, and today we're officially taking Teams for Education out of beta. Sign up for a free trial if you haven't already!* Thank you teachers for beta testing Teams, for giving us invaluable product feedback, for helping one another out as part of a vibrant and diverse community of Replers, and for being a part of the history of computers.
Tue, Dec 15, 2020Input/Outputing Testing & Autograding
Today, a highly requested feature has been released: Input/Output testing & autograding. The Input/Output Tests pane is embeded within all new and existing Teams for Education projects. This pane contains tools designed to simplify testing code. Instead of manually entering typing input and checking output for every submission, the autograder allows you to define and automate testing. How do I use it? Input/Output tests is only available for projects created within the Teams for Education product. This feature is available on all projects - new and existing. Click on the icon within the workspace sidebar nav to reveal the Input/Output tests pane.
Mon, Sep 28, 2020Code Annotations (available now for Teams for Education!)
The future of programming is collaborative. To this end, we've just added a new feature that unlocks a lot of potential for educators: the ability to annotate code. Annotations make it easy for students and teachers to communicate. You can point to particular sections of code, clear doubts about syntax, and question decisions during code reviews. And it's simple to use: just select a piece of code, click the floating annotate button, type in a message, and send. Once you create an annotation, it functions like chat: you instantly see your collaborators reply and can talk about code in real-time, just like how you write it. Remote learning This year, as students learn to code online, they are missing out on 'shoulder-to-shoulder debugging', where they work with their peers or teachers on the same screen to fix the inevitable bugs that beginners face.
Wed, Jul 22, 2020Dear users coming from Glitch
First, at Replit we're not motivated by competition. What we care about the most is making programming and computing more accessible. That means anyone who wants to code and build things should be able to do so without any hurdles. Recently, Glitch, one of our competitors focusing on JavaScript, has blocked pinging services from reaching user apps. Among other things it means they broke the Discord bot experience for their users. We don't have any insight on why they did that but it seems part of a larger change they're going through which also resulted in layoffs. That resulted in a user influx to Replit so I wanted to write this to welcome you to Replit and tell you a little about us. Replit has existed since 2011 and we've been growing the service in a sustainable way that doesn't result in disruptive changes. Building a service like ours is hard, especially for a small team like ours, and we're constantly improving and making things better. But our absolute top priority is being a place coders can depend on -- we will try our absolute best to never let you down.
