Repl.it is a San Francisco based start-up and an online IDE (integrated development environment)[2] created by Jordanian programmer Amjad Masad and Jordanian designer Haya Odeh in 2016[3]. Repl.it allows users to write code and build apps and websites using a browser.[4] Additionally, Repl.it allows users to share projects through various ways. They also host "jams", coding competitions based on a certain theme. Contest prizes often vary from a temporary account upgrade, money, cryptocurrency, or a gift card.
Repl.it has a premium tier called the Hacker plan. It allows for more storage space, private code, and unlimited collaborators on a project, and the Github Education plan includes 3 months free of the Hacker plan.
There are over 60 different programming languages on repl.it, including Python, Ruby, HTML, and Java.
The company has received funding from Y Combinator, Andreessen Horowitz, Bloomberg Beta, and others.[1] Its name comes from the acronym REPL, which stands for "read–evaluate–print loop." The company has over 500,000 weekly active developers[2] and over 3 million users.[citation needed]
