What is Replit?
Replit is an online, collaborative IDE with over 50 languages available. It works in your browser, integrates with GitHub, and is a great place to assign, review, and work on code-based assignments with your students, especially in introductory courses.
Why use Replit?
Using Replit helps instructors view, run, and debug code-based assignments with their students. It provides a convenient platform for distributing starter code, assignments (individual and group), and feedback without requiring students to download Python or an IDE on their own device. You can also host and deploy your own projects using Replit.
Replit works with more than 50 languages, so the software should be usable regardless of the language you and your students are learning.
Replit is most appropriate for introductory level programming needs. Some of the features that make it convenient to use in a browser also obscure features of programming languages that are necessary for more advanced work.
How do I get access to Replit?
Accounts for Replit are free, you do not need to submit a software request or ask L&IT for access.
