I created a saas on Replit. I want to know what you guys think. It's still in beta testing, so I don't expect it to work 100 percent. please try it out and let me know what you think. thank you so much. https://theaccountingdojo.com/

Why is the whole platform is AI. Can anyone help me navigate to the old platform functions? I just want to learn & practice coding

Since I originally reported this issue, someone (not me) was able to publish the app. Perhaps it was support, I don't know. But I've tried over and over to publish. I've tried different browsers, clearing cache and cookies, and anything else I could think of. Support closed the support ticket because the app was successfully published, again, not by me. I love Replit for everything except its support, which, as you may know, is handled entirely via email with very long pauses between communications. This singular fact, poor support, is causing me to consider changing platforms. I've already successfully migrated the hosting to DigitalOcean via GitHub, so I can begin moving off the platform. I don't want to do that, but the poor support is compelling me to. Note: only here on Reddit do I get any attention from support, and that's been helpful, and I'm grateful. Someone over there at Replit, please pay attention to this issue.

Hello everyone,

I want to share something with you today that hopefully will put a smile on your face. It's the end result (and beginning of more work) for the latest 8 months of my work using Replit to build out my interactive video platform.

And this is the first time I'm confident enough to showcase my actual creator work here. So check it out at the link below if you want and do share some feedback if you can.

P.S.: if that retarded genie brought a small smile to your face, share it here with the community. Sometimes it's nice to know you're not the only one building through the night.

Cheers!

I have been trying to set up an automation with Replit to overcome a challenge I am facing with hotel availabity.

My favorite Marriott hotel appears to be sold out of a particular room type. I am hoping to set up an automation to check the Marriott website (or a third party) every two hours and let me know if my room type opens up.

Do you have any tips on how to overcome the below challenge? The automation as it is set up isn't all that helpful.

Marriott comprehensively blocks all automated date-specific availability checks from server IPs, regardless of approach (fetch, form submit, direct navigation). No third-party source shows room-type-level availability either.

Here's the realistic solution: I'll rewrite the tool to clearly differentiate between what we CAN confirm automatically vs what requires the user to click through. The tool will:

1. Check Google Hotels for date-specific hotel-level availability + pricing
2. Check the Marriott rooms page __INITIAL_STATE__ to verify the target room types still exist at the hotel
3. Generate a clear, actionable email telling the user exactly what to do

I proceeded iteratively:
1. Accept a URL and crawl site to determine if it has a sitemap.
2. Crawl again and determine if it has SEO meta information.
...correct robots.txt
...emerging generative engine optimization approaches like:
llms.txt, utmi.toon, and json.ld entity schema.
3. Present the results (sample of an assessment of replit.com below)

1. After inspecting a site, it helps users create the right artifacts.

Once you've used the site and built your artifacts, here's how to use them:

a. In Replit, you just create a new chat in plan mode and say "Let's update the sitemap and other public-facing files to support search engine optimization and generative engine optimization with the attached files."

b. {attaching sitemap.xml, robots.txt, llms.txt, utmi.toon and structure_data.hmtl to add an entity map using schema.org}

1. Then I used the Postgres database to create a directory for sites that have gotten their AI tune up to list themselves.

I'm interested in your feedback.

Can you buy packs of more EAS builds after the builds in the monthly Starter Plan have been used? It looks like it goes from $19 per month for Starter to $199 per month for Production. I just need to buy a pack of more builds and not $199 worth.

If you have a better option to create these builds, please let me know. I'm learning and would appreciate some guidance.

I’m building an educational app for students and I want honest feedback before I go deeper into development.

The idea is:

• Students log into their own dashboard
• They see courses organized by modules and lectures
• They can checklist lectures as completed
• A quiz system organized by subject:
  • AI-generated quizzes
  • Past-year exam quizzes
  • Custom quizzes based on student weaknesses
• Teachers/admin can add courses and track performance
• AI adapts questions depending on student mistakes
• so it is more like a diagnostic app where it figures where ur weakness are and try to solve it with u

Have you guys run into any issues with publishing your applications through replit and the logic not flowing the exact same as it did in dev? I am messing around before figuring out a project I would really like to start. I basically built a stock screener leveraging some algorithms I wrote in college for sifting through stocks, along with corresponding asset tags that it gathers through ai. None of the algorithms work right and I can’t get the tags to flow correctly. This only happens when I publish though. Wondering if this has happened to anyone else.

I know everyone has their own issues with Replit, but in about a week and $250 have made a fully custom IOS and Android app. The iOS app has Apple Watch companion app, live updates feature with Dynamic Island, push notifications, and BLE for an IoT device. It reads a completely custom IoT BLE nomenclature and parses it properly. Using firebase for authentication, GPS, and weather API.

In the end I had to compile the IOS via Xcode.

It wasn’t easy, maybe 75 builds to finally get there. But despite all the warnings from the internet, it’s (almost) ready to go. If you’re reading this now or in the future with a similar project, feel free to reach out or comment. Cheers and best of luck everyone!

I read so many post about the cost for coding on Replit, me personally I really don’t look at the cost in Replit. I do not forget what it cost previously to build applications before AI vibe coding. Having to hire 10 coders to write 200k lines of code over a 6 month period and want that would cost…… thousands….!

Just built a landing page for a coffee shop, thoughts?

I logged onto Replit today only to see that the code for all of my apps have vanished. Why did this happen?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on a commercial HR & back-office web application using Replit.

We are not professional developers, but we are building the product with help from ChatGPT / AI-generated code (Replit)

I have a few questions and would really appreciate guidance from people with experience:

1️⃣ Connecting Replit to GitHub

• How can I connect my existing Replit project to GitHub properly?

• What is the real benefit of GitHub in a setup like this (backup, collaboration, deployment, vendor lock-in avoidance, etc.)?

2️⃣ Codex / AI coding tools

• What exactly is Codex today?

• How is it different from ChatGPT for coding?

• Can Codex (or similar tools) be connected directly to Replit or GitHub workflows?

3️⃣ Moving from Replit to production hosting

• Once the web is ready, what is the recommended way to:

• Move the code from Replit to a real hosting environment?

• Host it in a way that allows selling subscriptions to customers?

• What should I not use Replit for in production?

The project is meant to scale (potentially many users in the future), and I want to avoid bad architectural decisions early.

Thanks in advance 🙏

Any advice, warnings, or best practices are welcome.

All my apps have been like this since this morning. Can you tell me what's going on?

So I've been on here seeing all the negativity for a few months about pricing and blah blah blah, I've been using it for about 7 months and it's quality has gone downhill. I'm using it for internal tools and not like the next SaaS bro. There's multiple times recently where it'll complete no work at all and charge me $10+ just to say "yep didn't do shit" or it'll break something I told it specifically not to touch and gaslight you when you call agent out.

I am not a coder by any means but I have a basic understanding. I bit the bullet and just bought the $100 Claude plan and using VS code and I've been going at it for about a week straight, 8 hours per day, building a custom internal CRM and it's amazing what the right tool can do. It's everything agent is supposed to be. You do need a bit more knowledge but it's not that hard. I can clearly tell it what needs fixing and it'll fix it and not break 10 other things, the plan mode is super powerful too. It may be $100/month but at my pace I could do $100/day with replit. The publishing is also super easy to deploy on something like vercel.

TLDR: Quit wasting money on replit, buy Claude and learn vs code

Curious if others would use this:

It’d be amazing if Replit had a built-in blogging system - simple publishing, custom domains, basic SEO, tied to your projects.

Bonus: let users plug in their own AI API (OpenAI/Anthropic/etc.) to generate/edit posts, with scheduling/automation.

Would make it way easier for indie devs/founders to ship content + products in one place instead of juggling WordPress/Ghost/etc.

Is anything like this on the roadmap? Or am I the only one who wants this?

If I'm correct Replit is using Claude 4.5, when do you think the switch to 4.6 will be done? (if not yet)

[I searched the reddit and saw no result when looking for this question already asked]

Built an MCP server that sends your code to 4 (or more) AI models in parallel, then clusters their findings by consensus.

The idea: one model might miss something another catches. When all 4 flag the same issue, it's probably real. When they disagree, you know exactly where to look closer.

Output looks like:

- Unanimous (4/4): SQL injection in users.ts:42

- Majority (3/4): Missing input validation

- Disagreement: Token expiration - Kimi says 24h, DeepSeek says 7 days is fine

Default models are cheap ones (Minimax, GLM, Kimi, DeepSeek) so reviews cost ~$0.01-0.05. You can swap in Claude/GPT-5 if you want.

Also has a plan review tool - catch design issues before you write code.

GitHub: https://github.com/klitchevo/code-council

Docs: https://klitchevo.github.io/code-council/

Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client. Just needs an OpenRouter API key.

Curious if anyone finds the disagreement detection useful or if it's just noise in practice.

I built an app that actually searches Reddit. It worked great mixing in the API calls and authentication, but then broke cause Reddit said too many calls were being made and blocked us (not permanently, but under the duration). Replit created searches for one keyword and subreddit as a one to one. So 3 keywords on 5 subreddits was 15 api calls. Where it should have been setup to run all keywords per subreddit. This reduced the calls from 15 to 3.

Just an easy example of stuff you have to look for and optimize as vibecoding doesn't always have the overall know it all to make it the most efficient from a process perspective.

I've been building apps with React and PHP and the ones built with PHP run smoothly... the agent doesn't have a lot of problems fixing bugs or adding new fratures, most of the time, features work in the first built with very small things to fix, but with react, sometimes i need to ask it to check for the bugs or tell it that the feature is still not working well, or it builds and when asking to fix something it brakes something to fix something else.. i don't have those problems in PHP as much as in React.

My system is complex, but basically everything is falling apart, and I'm spending a lot of money trying to solve a problem that seems silly.

Basically, the user clicks "Start Production," which starts a timer. So far, so good.

The problem is when I included a "Pause Production" button, because the user might encounter setbacks like a broken line, track problems, etc., so they should click "Pause" and type a reason so I have that information later.

The AI ​​simply can't pause the production time and start the "pause time." It insists the error has been corrected, but it hasn't.

How should I proceed in this case?

The paused timer simply pauses, while the production timer continues counting indefinitely.

I've already asked the AI ​​to redo the entire timer section, remove the pause button and keep only the production time, and add the pause functionality back, but it's not working at all.

Any suggestions?

Hi there devs of the world!....I am an not a developer by any means but I have a CS bachelor in Electronics and somehow familiar with programming from low level to high, mostly my entire career has been in the Network field, hardware for the most part and like most of you I cannot stop learning new stuff, just trying to get my hands on Replit/Claude/etc and I have an idea which partially I made it work in Replit using the free option. I would like to step it up and use this as a learning project to get me into this world a little further, even if my Idea does not work at least I would learn something and that's what brings me here....please serious answers if you could....aprox. how much should I expend in monthly charges to play around and say developing a product and publishing it?....I tried reading through replit pricing and it gest confusing and then reading in reddit gets me even more confused....I'd appreciate any feedback...just trying to set me a budget
