How to Use Replit Agent

‍

This tutorial shows how to use Replit Agent to build a project from a prompt and iterate on it using the Agent chat.

Notes:

• You need a Replit account to get started. Sign up at replit.com if you don't have one yet.
• Replit Agent works best with clear, specific prompts. The more context you give, the better the output.
  

1. Sign in at replit.com and click + Create Something New on the dashboard.
2. At the bottom of the prompt, use the suggested example prompt as a starting point, or describe your own - for example, "A quarterly review dashboard for a SaaS startup summarizing key metrics, wins, and next quarter priorities." Click the Arrow button to run.
3. Wait for the Agent to generate your project. It sets up the environment, installs dependencies, and creates your files automatically.
4. To make changes, type a follow-up instruction in the Agent tab - for example, "Add a color picker or toner." The Agent updates the project automatically.
5. Test your project and check the Preview or Console for confirmation that everything is working correctly.
