Introduction to the Workspace
The Workspace is like an IDE (Integrated Development Environment), providing a comprehensive set of development tools and features for creating, debugging, and managing your software. It helps you quickly and easily create, modify, and collaborate on your code.
Configure a Repl
Repls are configured with two files: the .replit and replit.nix. They affect how your Repl behaves, from code execution to development tools and languages.
Configuring Workflows
A Workflow is a reusable, customizable sequence of steps that can be executed within your repl. A workflow can be as simple as a script that runs python main.py or as complex as a procedure that is composed of many tasks.
Dependency Management
Replit supports a variety of languages and dependency management systems through the Dependencies tool. This section will cover the different types of dependencies and how to manage them in your Repl.

Overview
Extensions
Extensions are applications you can develop to enhance the functionality and tools available within the Replit Workspace.
Ports
Because Replit runs your projects on a cloud environment, ports work differently on Replit than on your local computer. (If you need a more basic explanation of what TCP ports are, start here.)

Templates
If your Repl can be used as a good starting point for other project, you might want to submit it as a template! Let's learn what a Replit template is and how to make a good one.
