Service Workshop – Bubble, Glide, Bolt, and Replit
Lesson 4: Replit – Agent Building, Checkpoints, and Secrets
Lesson Objectives
By the end of this lesson, students should be able to:
- Build with Replit Agent using staged requests.
- Use checkpoints to roll back.
- Store keys in Secrets, never in code.
Lesson Content
Replit (replit.com) offers an AI agent that plans and builds apps, including backends, in a full coding workspace. Key points (verify current details):
- Effort-based credits: the agent decides how much work a request needs and bills credits accordingly; complex requests cost more.
- Checkpoints: the agent creates restore points; roll back when a change goes wrong.
- Secrets: API keys and passwords go in Replit's secrets store, not in code files.
- Deployments: publishing a live app may have its own costs.
