Update: Ghostwriter is out now!
In 2018 when we announced Multiplayer Mode, we said it’s the most significant evolution of Replit to date. For the first time, you could share a URL with a friend, student, or coworker and get a shared text editor and runtime — no setup required. Replit Multiplayer is changing how an entire generation of programmers learn how to code and make software.
Today, we’re announcing Ghostwriter, which infuses state-of-the-art intelligence into nearly all IDE features. Ghostwriter sports an ML-powered pair programmer that completes your code in realtime, tools to generate, transform, and explain code, and an in-editor search utility that lets you find and import open-source code without leaving your editor (think Stackoverflow in your editor).
