Make Your Own App With Replit Agent…

Deep down, everyone’s got an app idea they know will kill it. Yesterday, Replit launched an AI agent that let’s you make apps right from your phone!

Example apps that people made with just prompting:

Candy Crush Clone

Got a favorite game you like to play to pass the time? Make a clone but give it a twist!

Personalized Fitness App

Have favorite workout? Make an app to track it and share it with others with the same interests.

Ready to Make Your App? Here’s 5 Simple Steps

1. Create Your Replit Account
Head to replit.com and sign up for a free account.

2. Draft a PRD with GPT
Before diving in, ask ChatGPT to generate a Product Requirements Document (PRD) for your app idea. This will outline your goals, user flows, and key features. A clear PRD is the best instructions for the agent.

3. Paste Your Prompt into Replit
Take your freshly minted PRD and drop it into Replit’s prompt window. Sit back and let Replit Agent cook. You can even go grab a coffee… :)

4. Integrate Essential Tools
While it’s cooking, Replit is going to stop and ask you to connect a few things it needs for setup. For example a Stripe account to take payments or a FireBase account for the database. Just follow the instructions and it will be a snap.

5. Iterate and Launch
Once you’ve got V1 running, keep refining by prompting Replit Agent to add features one at a time. When you’re ready, show off your creation on Product Hunt— like we did—and let the world in on your brand-new mobile app!
