Replit
A browser-based development environment with an agent, Replit Agent, that builds the application from a description, runs it and publishes it at an address you can send. Database and hosting come with the same account: nothing to install, nothing to wire up elsewhere.
Strengths
- A public link from the first version, with no host or domain to configure
- Database and hosting in the same account as the code
Limitations
- Billing by agent credits: a session going in circles costs money, and you find out the amount afterwards
- On the free plan, the published link goes down after 30 days
- Everything lives at Replit: moving elsewhere takes real migration work
Best for
- A designer or PM who has to send a clickable prototype by link, today
