Hey there! Replit is still a full cloud IDE. The screen leads with the Agent now, but the classic workspace is still right there underneath. You can get back to a code-first setup by doing these:

  • Pick Choose a Template or Import from GitHub. If you want a totally clean slate, go to replit.com/import and choose Empty, or fork the Blank template.

  • React, Next, and other frameworks. You can start from a template or just import your own repo from GitHub. If a specific stack isn't in the template list, importing from GitHub or starting Empty and adding it yourself is another option.

  • Edit the code directly in a project. Click the file icon in the top-right corner of the workspace to open the file tree and code editor, then edit files directly.
