Fri, Mar 13, 2026Vibe Coding Enterprise Data Apps with Replit and Databricks
Summary Manny (from Replit), and Cong & Denis (from Databricks) walked through our new Replit–Databricks connector, showing how we vibe coded enterprise data apps live. Databricks centralized enterprise data and AI for tens of thousands of customers, so our Replit apps could tap governed tables, models, and warehouses without copying sensitive data around. We used Replit’s Databricks connector to pull real sample datasets into an app, then let the agent vibe code a 3D weather globe that stayed safely inside Databricks. Replit Agent handled the scaffolding and UI while Databricks handled scale and governance, so Manny could ship a working data tool in minutes instead of weeks of traditional BI work. Databricks Genie acted as an in-app data copilot, answering natural-language questions with cited tables so builders saw exactly which data every insight came from.

Fri, Feb 27, 2026Building Spookseek AR on Replit: How a Designer Shipped an AR Ghost Hunting Game in a Week
Summary Designer turned builder Ruth Heasman ships Spookseek AR for Replit’s mobile Buildathon, turning a Halloween AR idea into a real iOS game. She builds for mobile first, leaning on camera, motion sensors, haptics, sound, and AR visuals so ghost hunting feels grounded in the real room. Replit Agent helped her co-create a bespoke 3D system, even though she started “really clueless” about 3D math and AR stacks. Together they worked around Expo’s lack of ARKit, projecting ghosts on a virtual sphere and tuning targeting through a lot of iteration. The hardest work lands in the last twenty percent, when dev and production builds behave differently and performance problems fail silently.

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.

Mon, Jun 20, 2022Embedding 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.
