This seems like a solid product and I will definitely keep it in mind. One thing that I really like is the number of languages you support (https://repl.it/languages). I would recommend adding support for Elixir and Phoenix down the road. While the community is small (compared to other languages/frameworks), it is growing, and the community is great.

Congrats on securing your funding and all the best!

Definitely on the roadmap. We're working on making it easy to add languages by creating common abstractions. As a start we just open-sourced Prybar: "a universal interpreter front-end" https://github.com/replit/prybar

congrats amjad! I think I was one of your first interviewing candidates (didn't get the job) but I'm missing my favorite programming languages (Julia, Elixir) on repl.it!! Hope they show up soon.

Thanks for your support, we're growing the community slowly, just like we grew our languages on Repl.it. Support for more and more languages is on our roadmap and we are building the technology for it.

Hey, please add FreePascal and Lazbuild (command line Lazarus compilation).
