Details

Replit has launched Element Editor, which allows users to click on elements and edit them instantly like a design tool, instead of writing code directly or asking an agent.

With Element Editor, the following tasks are now possible:

  • Direct text editing: You can click on a text element and type directly to change its content.
  • Enhanced color editing: Intuitive color changes are possible through color name and Hex code input, as well as an eyedropper tool.
  • Expanded style controls: You can freely adjust font size, weight, alignment, background color, Margin, Padding, and more.

The editing method varies depending on the scale of the task. Direct edits update the source code instantly and do not consume any additional credits. On the other hand, for edits with a broader scope, Element Editor passes the target metadata to the Agent to carry out the change.

While the existing Element Selector worked by asking the agent to make edits, the new Element Editor lets users directly control every element on the page like a design tool.
