Details

Replit has introduced two new features to lower the barriers to programming through real-time collaboration and create a more creative coding environment.

Observation Mode is a feature that lets you closely follow a colleague's work process in real time. Clicking on an avatar in the header lets you follow the other person's cursor movements and file switches, syncing your editor accordingly, which is useful for teaching or interviews.

  • Tracks the other person's cursor and file switches in real time
  • Displays the other person's avatar color in the editor to indicate observation status

Filetree Presence lets you instantly see where collaborators are within the file tree. When a collaborator is staying on a particular file or directory, an avatar is displayed next to that location, allowing team members to intuitively grasp which files are currently being worked on.
