Repl.it is a San Francisco based start-up and an online IDE (integrated development environment)[2] created by Amjad Masad, Haya Odeh and programmer Jarosław Stański in 2016. Repl.it allows users to write code and build apps and websites using a browser.[3] 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]

Repl.it has multiple boards for posting content, such as the ask board for asking questions, the tutorials board for posting tutorials, and the share board for sharing games or programs with the community.

Repl.it also has a sort of reputation point system called ‘cycles’. They are indicated by the number in parentheses next to your user name. You get cycles by answering questions, and people upvoting your comments/posts. Cycles have no use, but they might have something to do with a shop system in the future... Repl.it lets you choose different programming languages including Python, HTML, C++, and more! an example of a Repl would be: import random import sys from time import sleep


  1. scrollTxt by xolyon's, via CodingCactus

def scrollTxt(text): for char in text: sys.stdout.write(char) sys.stdout.flush() sleep(0.05)


colors = 1

for bit in range(1, 8+1):

 colors = colors * 2
 print(colors)

Blue="\33[0;34m" Cyan="\033[1;36m" Purple="\033[0;35m" Green="\033[0;32m" Orange ="\033[0;33m" Pink = "\033[1;31m" DarkBlue = "\033[1;34m" White = "\033[1;37m" Gray = "\033[1;30m"

print("\33[0;34m Hello \33[0;35m World"). this is a clip from a Repl named "Colorz," and you will not find it anywhere else.
