I did some contract work on a project that was produced with replit, extracting it to github and setting up its production and staging environments, auditing for issues, resolving some of them.

There was so much that wasn't done, it was basically an Airbnb-like service and it lacked any capacity to register users, pay for or disburse payments, create or manage listings, notifications, administration. They went from expecting to launch in a couple weeks, to looking at my roadmap and quote of about 3 months more development work which wildly exceeded their budget or commitment to the project.

I don't know how much of this was Replit's fault but some of it certainly was, like despite being a monorepo the frontend had no connectivity with the backend, there was no barriers between user data and most endpoints were not secured.
