Replit — Introducing Replit Projects

We’re excited to announce Projects for Replit, a new way to collaborate with your team. This feature is in beta now, available to all Replit Teams customers. Projects let you maintain multiple versions of your team’s codebase and easily merge your changes together when you’re ready. Anyone on your team can “fork” (create a new copy of the code), make changes, preview what changed, and then merge those changes back into the main version with a few clicks. If you weren’t using Replit, it might take a new teammate hours to set up their local development environment, make their changes correctly, and get their code reviewed and merged. Why use Projects? As a team writing software, collaboration is important. Realtime coding or pair programming is useful, but sometimes you need your own space to work. If your whole team was working on their ideas in a realtime session at the same time, one person writing some invalid code would stop everyone else from being able to test their own code. And sometimes, you might want to test out an idea without knowing for sure if it’s the right approach, and be ready to scrap it if it doesn't work out.
