Thank you for the video! I’ve been resisting the hype to jump on the Cursor train. I even went as far as trying Claude Dev, but it wasn’t as effective. I’m going to do some testing now- you’ve never led me astray! :)

Glad to hear I got you off the fence! There are no 'perfect' end-to-end solutions, but this is definitely the best 'start' to getting full-stack capabilities in the hands of non-developers. Take it for a whirl!

It’s a stretch to say that anyone with no programming background can code with replit… it’s a great tool for engineers and people who know some computer programming and that their ideas can be achieved by programming an app. The reality is that most people without computer programming skills don’t know what a back end is, or that they need an admin portal, they wouldn’t know what an api is either never mind why they need a key for it, they wouldn’t know how to deploy an app or that it needs to be deployed securely. You can try to show them how it’s done in a video, but they won’t understand why things need to be done that way, and so their knowledge is going to be what you just showed them on the video, replit is not going to tell them about memory leaks, or dependencies that are outdated and the AI doesn’t know about it. You need to have some engineering background or computer science knowledge to use these tools still.

appreciate your detailed take on this! I'm betting that the following will transpire over the next year: 1) Next 3-6 months, we'll likely get a version of Replit Agent/Bolt New/v0 that will be able to make mediocre applications end-to-end without any coding expertise; key word, mediocre (not necessarily easily scalable, and will have security vulnerabilities that a true engineer would need to seal) 2) 6-12 months, I could see a place where we have large enough context windows, more stable products trained on more than just flask and basic js frameworks able to build more scalable apps that have agents that allow for test cases, vulnerability scans, and reviewing whether there's a logical flow to the application build Time will tell, but I have a hunch some semblance of this will play out!

Based on your video, I tried the replit site and fund it less than expected where other did much better. Best to say that it is useful for beginners who is learning programming but for professional can not be used for building app or even framework.
@Mark_Kashef3 ай бұрын
thanks for the feedback -- at the moment, the effectiveness entirely depends on what you're trying to build. For nextjs or react level apps, it will come with time. For many basic apps with flask, it can do the job pretty well and is competitive with the likes of Bubble smart forms and such.

Problem I found with Replit is if I ask it "build me an admin portal on nextjs with next-auth" and it then proceeded to build a python flask app. Admittedly it did a decent job at getting that done. But it's a bit of a stretch to say it can build anything.
@Mark_Kashef3 ай бұрын
It biases towards building on Flask or Vanilla JS, but if you see it through to the end of its ‘plan’, you can push it to re-write the app code; it’s in alpha so it’s surely not perfect Once the kinks are resolved I do think that the majority of basic low fidelity apps are fair game

This is for new and future people joining into cs. No, AI won't replace you. Being a software engineer is more than just coding an app, is an understanding of problem solving, system design, architecture and how to work with environments, do version control, read docs, learn how to learn. These are things that A.I will help you to get done much easier. Companies will want devs that can use A.I to get things done much easier, faster and better.

Pure Gold! Thank you mark. In my time, as a user and not a biz analyst, I have had to write user requirement documents (URDs) for travel software builds so Replit is awesome because I'm not a coder. Do you think Replit would be able understand such documets down the line OR would I have to run it through a prompt to generate an output Replit would understand. Not sure if I've explained it properly - probably not. May be a business SaaS idea for you. I'd pay to use it and so would most business owners I wager - at least for internal productivity improvements.

Thanks so much Ben! Honestly it’s entirely doable if formatting isn’t as important. I would basically tell to create the document by collecting all the prerequisite information, then providing it with a robust prompt to generate the document and tell it to allow you to download it in some way (perhaps PDF) from the web interface. You can get pretty far in a short amount of time! 🦾

My problem with replit is the constant "You've hit the usage limit for the Replit Agent". Then I have to wait 3 to 6 hours just to find out it was just the agent hung up on a task and have to restart the project... just to find I've, once again, reached the usage limit. And this is all on a paid account. Kinda frustrating.
@Mark_Kashef3 ай бұрын
Totally fair - it’s in alpha, so I’m sure that’ll resolve pretty quickly - it’ll be a seamless part of the product shortly I’m sure. On the hang up part, I’ve experienced that as well - one way I’ve got around it is telling it that the error or goal was complete when it wasn’t so it could check it off then i would restate the issue as a new task. Imperfect but can work - also, once it gets stuck, sometimes I screenshot the main code where it’s hanging then use claude to help me fix it so I can passed the hump. Hopefully won’t need do be too creative for too long!

@Mark_Kashef3 ай бұрын
honestly I wouldn't let something like this scare you -- many won't bother to learn how to use this technology at scale You might not be building web apps by the time you graduate, but there will be a place a greater emphasis on being able to 'prompt engineer' these types of applications with the knowledge of the frameworks they're using When everyone builds applications at scale with little to no coding ability, the ability to audit will dwindle. You can be one of those that understands how the 'backroom' works 🦾

I was able to get Replit to build a decent prototype, but once I tried to get it to add features it totally fell apart. Even when adding a simple feature like displaying and updating a date field. The agent began asking me questions about how I was doing with the development of the feature. When I asked it for help it requested that I provide it with the code so it could review it. Definitely an alpha product, and no way this can be used for anything serious at this point.
@Mark_Kashef3 ай бұрын
The trouble arises (for now) when you add the additional features very often 'before' it's approved checklist is fully complete -- it hangs quite a bit for me. Instead, I let it 'complete' it's checklist, then I piecemeal my additional feature enhancements step by step to avoid the runaround - definitely a lot longer to go to make this truly robust
